I hunt Johnson/Union Co. most of the time! But since I live in GA, I can't get there very often! Man, I envy you guys who are close, 'cause if I did I'd be hunting Oct. 1 too. Good luck to all!

Hunt Wayne, Clay and Marion. More pumped up than in the past. Been watching a buck that should score 200+. I always see good deer butwhen an exceptional 1 comes into the picture it tends to get a person excited!

I hunt public land in Kankakee county.

Actually it's 7 days and a wake-up, and I can't wait either! I've been boucin' off the walls for the last 5 or 6 weeks.Went out clearing shooting lanes this past saturday and seen so much sign I can't believe it! Tracks, poop and even a couple small rubs. I've been hunting the same woods for 13 or 14 years now and I'm finally getting to know them pretty good. Or maybe I'm just finally learning what to look for. I'll definetly be out opening day. If I get one you'll all know.

I'm hoping to join the nanny-whackers' club. At least twice.

I hunt Woodford County by the Mackinaw River. Cant wait for the weekend. At school right now and really involved in a livestock program. But you can count on me being in my stand at 4am.. Ready to throw an arrow into a big boy!

Good Luck to all of you this year!!

I hunt Madison, Macoupin, Jersey and White Counties. Looks like it is going to be warm, so I'm not too excited just yet.
