Hope you can help me out. I have never hunted in Illinois, and I am trying to figure out what I need to do legally. I went to the Il website and read about 20-30 pages of rules and regulations, violations of which result in some severe penalties. I just could not figure it all out.
I guess I need:
A general hunting license.
A habitat stamp (whatever that is)
To somehow get into a drawing for a deer tag.
I want to hunt with a muzzle loader, and if I am reading this all right, I can apply for either the muzzle loader season, OR the regular shotgun season but use the muzzle loader in that. Anyone know if that is true?
How do I get my name in the drawing for the tags?
