Default Seasons End

well tommarow is the last day of the bow season here in Il.
what a bummer. now it will seem like 8 years for the next season. i will hunt tommarow and i will probably not see my ghost buck agin but i suppose he will be bigger and beter next year. i have been seeing all of his sign and have not yet got the oppertunity to see him. big time bummer. in fact i have not killed anything in the honey hole this year. seen some and been busted a few times but nothing in the freezer.
it is wierd i have taken 4 deer this year and nothing in the hole. my best year and nothing in the hole. i hope this is not the future. if so i will have to demand that my dad buy a new house or at least some more ground. LOL
i only own 10 acres and of that only 3-4 acres is woods and i killed 2 here and was only in the woods for 70 min.
the end of the season is always depressing. it is a good thing i have found this place. All of you have made my season. and i mean that. thanks!!!
i have a lot of hunting friends but nothing compaired to you. where else can you talk to your friend at 3:30 in the morning
well i am done sobbing now and i guess come thursday it is time to start scouting for next year and let me tell you there are some places that i cannot wait to walk through. it has just been killing me not checking them out. the ghost is getting ready to be figured the rest of the way out.
you guys/ girls have a happy and sucessful ending.
Jim

jimmya, I don't want to be the barer of bad news, but today is the last day of the season. If you go out with your bow tomorrow, you may get in trouble. Pistol season opens in selected counties tomorrow.
