Archery Trip To Illinois Might Just Happen

Well folks, I am so pumped, yesterday some friends and I applied for a Illinois archery deer hunting permit. I have always wanted to go on a big time deer hunt and it looks like this could be the year that dream becomes a reality. We are planning to go on a bow hunt in late October to early November. Right in the heart of big buck country. I have always wanted to hunt in Illinois, where the chances of getting a world class whitetail are very good. It’s a lottery to get drawn for so hopefully we will get drawn.

If you are wondering why I am so pumped up about hunting in Illinois check out this video, and if you are a deer hunter you will understand.

I have already made my self a hunting equipment checklist and I just ordered a new bow that should be here tomorrow. The bow that I have been using for years has been a great one, but it is time for an upgrade. I have never shot a carbon arrow and I just can’t wait to start practicing with my new PSE Stinger. I bought it on-line at huntersfriend.com. They have ready to hunt bow packages that come set up and paper tuned and ready to hunt right out of the package. I just don’t have a lot of spare time, so this is a great deal for someone who doesn’t have the time to get a bow tuned and set up properly. Of course I will need to get in a lot of practice between now and hunting season, which I plan on doing. If you are looking for a good deal on a bow package you can check them out at huntersfriend.com or click here, or call 1-877-410-7811.

A while back I decided to set a deer hunting goal for my self, of harvesting a Pope and Young buck with my bow. Bow hunting in Illinois just might help me acheive that goal. They have some real trophy whitetails there and I just might get a bruiser, you never know. I have been deer hunting twenty seven years and have never been hunting outside of the great state of Georgia. I have taken some real nice bucks in Georgia, but I really hope to get the chance to go bow hunting in Illinois. I am pumped up just thinking about it.

Also I will be moving to Kentucky real soon and I here there is some great hunting there also. I am looking forward to hunting in some of these states that I have only read about and seen on tv. I here there is a lot of corn up that way. I bet those tenderloins taste real good. Not to mention those world class  racks.
