Illinois Late Winter Antlerless Season

[luieb45]

Any of you guys going out next weekend? I didn't plan on it until I saw the forecast for next weekend. It is supposed to be a little bit above freezing. I guess it wouldn't hurt if I killed another deer out at my grandpa's place. My only concern is that they've herded up to groups of 9-10 except there are some groups of 2 or 3 sometimes.

I'll be out there if I can get enough firewood up for the weekend. It's always been a tough hunt in the past, but I certainly need some meat for the freezer.

I will be out there with my 45 longrifle both days!!!!

I was halfway planning on it.

Count on it. :thumbsup:

Got some bad news. I may not get to hunt the season since we might go to kansas city for the weekend. Either way it won't be too bad since I'd get to go to cabelas and bass pro if I do go over there.

Going hunting it is cheaper. My oldest boy drew in a lottery hunt at Lake Evergreen for Sunday so I have to Supervise. Myself I hope to get out with the muzzleloader on Saturday afternoon. Hope to go on Sunday as well.

I plan on taking one or two sons out to fill their tags.

I really enjoy the time in the blind drinking coffee and watching the kids anxiously waiting for a deer.

I could go ahead and hunt on you property if you wanted me to. Where was it again? :wink:

The Doc is out now. :v

I don't know if that would be a good idea since it's not my ground and my grandpa doesn't want any other hunters besides my family. You said that you know Donny Limkeman. I bet if you asked him he might let you hunt the place he has where his house is. There is a good fence line there that I saw dozens of deer on while I was on our place 300 yards away.

Ignominious way to end the season. Tripped in my house Thursday night and messed up my foot. No walking much for me this weekend. Still the 'memories' of the first deer hunt I ever took, will be there, even if I didn't get anything, see anything, and only heard others shooting! (sigh)

The Doc is out now - trying to heal myself. :v
