Default We're off! Illinois Youth Hunt

We'll be heading downto the farm for the IL Youth Firearm Deer Hunt this weekend.

My son Ben has proven himself more than proficient with his weapon. Now to fill the tag.

Wish us luck!

Read above. I'll be down south hunting with the boy. Thanx guys for the wishes. Man with the weather forecast of 80's and thunderstorms both afternoons I'm wondering when they'll move more. Morning or afternoon. I'm thinking LATE afternoon.

But we'll meet up sometime Jimmy. Remember that stand I told ya about?

Matt,

The deer in East Central IL. have been moving better in the early mornings, and I think it is because at sunrise it's been about 53-60 degrees. And at sunset it's still 75-80, so the deer are arriving to the fields to feed much later, after dark. IMO anyways. Good luck.

THANX! That makes sense. My buddy lives down there so I'll see what his take is tomorrow morning. He leaves early for work in the AM - I'll see what he has been finding. He is supposed to be scouting out a site for a two-man ladder.
