Knox, Warren, Illinois
 
I've got a buddy that owns a farm in Warren Co, Illinois and I visited him last year. He's a drinker---not a hunter, so there is absolutely zero pressure on the deer on his farm. I walked his draws and the edges of his fields and was amazed at the amount of scrapes every where. just wondered if anyone was doing any good at all in any of these counties. I never see any of them listed as being hunted on any of these posts. With the size of some of the rubs..and the size of the trees they were on....there's some real monsters around there. He said they tear the hell out of his corn, so they're eating really well.....:)

I'd hit it! It's a sure bet that the deer that frequent the area know that this farm is a sanctuary. Free from the danger that deer, especially bigger, wiser & older deer know comes from hunters. Be very careful not to leave scent around, make a plan with wind being the #1 most important consideration and your stand approach #2.

We expect pictures.
