Did anyone get a deer today? What did you get--what did you use--any good stories? Fairly quiet in Carroll County today for the season opener.
People like you start rumors like this about Illinois deer and you get those non-residents and urbanites all excited about hunting here. Be honest. There are only a few scrawny and sickly deer in Illinois, hardly worth the trouble. Folks should go to Iowa and Missouri if they want good whitetail deer. I've got 2 Illinois deer in my chest freezer and I can still shut the lid.Yes, got my first deer, ten pointer on late Friday afternoon, 258lbs. dressed.
