Nice one. I've heard it said many times that Illinois is an underrated deer hunters territory...

Thanks for posting and the pic

I went ahead and made the 12 hour ride back to Hamilton Co. for the second season.
Mostly for a ash burial for my friends brother on Sat. , but also killed a nice mature doe Sunday.
With all the nice weather on Dec. 3rd , things did not seem right...saw grasshoppers, a tick, and right before shooting that doe a bat flying around !
later on it was lawn chairs, food, beer , stories and that big bright moon !
