I am here in central Illinois. Mainly Livingston county but sometimes I wonder over to Ford. But I wouldn't really call what I have done this year hunting. I got about 2 weeks to get my first kill. It isn't looking good for me!!

hunt4hobbie, I am from MO. but do most of my bowhunting in Southern IL. I do all of my hunting in Johnson and Pope counties. I have been hunting up there for about 10 years and hope to continue hunting there but if the nonresident permits keep going up I guess I will just have to stay home and hunt.<img src=icon_smile_dissapprove.gif border=0 align=middle>

Hey bowhuntin1 you ever hunt the La Rue Pines area. I have always wanted to try that area but have never scouted much out there. I have seen a few wall hangers while driving through the gravel roads back there.
