Headed up Sunday for a week to my Illinois lease. Been in this lease two years and will finally set foot on the property. I hope to bring back a cooler fuller full of deboned goodness.

Yeah couldnt make it happen last year. In the lease with a few guys that I know that have had it for a while. They will point me in the right direction. This lease is actually almost all woods surrounded by ag fields. Should be pretty good. Never killed a decent buck with my bow. I will not be too picky with them, but will limit myself to about 25-30 yard shots max. At least that is the plan as of now.

What area is your club in?
I'm really sold on the UP, it's a treasure of farms and woodland that's totally unlike lower Illinois.

I had a project that lasted a few years in Southern Illinois (near Cave in Rock). Hunting season you would see the hotels fill up with fat guys from Chicago who would dress up like Elmer Fudd, park their Chrysler New Yorker on the side of the road, and head off into the woods, no idea whatsoever who owned the land. They might get a hundred yards or so off the road. It was hilarious. But you didn't want to be in the woods then...

Just got back yesterday after a week up there. Was very warm until Wednesday morning and had to leave yesterday.
Even with the warm temperatures, we saw bucks and I killed a nice one Monday afternoon.
