My Illinois morning hunt
Well guys had a pretty good morning here in Illinois except the dang wind wouldnt cooperate and forced me to leave at 10. The first two deer i seen were a doe and a young fawn which suprisingly had a few spots left. I decided to pass on the doe. Then i had a small 4pt and a small 6pt came in and i passed on those two. Around 830 or a little after i have about a 120 class 8 pt. come in at 16 yards and after looking him over i decided to pass him up. After that the wind shifted and i decided to get down but seen movement behind me so i waited. About 20 min. later i had about 10 turkeys come in and feed for about a half hour. After they left i then decided to get down because the wind was terrible and seemed like it was always blowing in a different direction. And also need to finish up cutting a field of beans before the rain moves in.
