ILLINOIS hunters, how close to a road are you legally allowed to hunt?

I would check the regulations but I don't think there is any set distance as long as you don't shoot from, along or towards it.

IL DNR. Page 9

Hunting from Road

It is unlawful to

gun or bow and arrow device along, upon,

across or from a public roadway, highway

or right-of-way.

means the entire width between the

boundary lines of every public road.

Roadway means the portion of the public

road that is improved or ordinarily used

for vehicle travel, excluding the berm or

shoulder

off the shoulder, or ditch, (unless there is power poles present, in which case on the otherside of them) and you arent alowed to shoot toward, on or across the road! thats what they told us at the hunters saftey course! of course that was6 years ago to.
