No it is with Doug Doty of Illinois Whitetail Services LLC. He used to be Dreamwoods Outfitters but went on his own now. Great guy, we have hunted with him for the last 3 yrs.

I looked into the Wayne Fitzgerrell Area but it's only open 2 days that week and my guess would be that it gets hunted hard all of October.

3 weeks and I'll be in Illinois for 7 days! Woot!

How many of you are coming down to this area to hunt?.Theres tons of public ground where i live and its only about 20-30 min. from Whittington. I would show you all around the area.

Not going to make it opening day but Ill be out there the whole weekend. I was down at my place sunday checking food plots and trail cameras. Everything is looking good. Food plots are getting hit and a couple of small scrapes and rubs poping up here and there. Ive got upwards of 15 p&y bucks on camera so far, so the season is looking pretty good.
