    I missed this whole year after having back surgery October 7.

    You have a lease up there?

    Good luck

    Dad killed a 130ish 4.5yo 8pt up there last tuesday when it was so cold. Crossbow. He and his buddy are heading back up there tomorrow morning for the weekend. Their lease is a little NE of Vienna.

    We have a couple buddies that lease a few small tracks of land for bow hunting and we lease the gun season . We are in Carmi Il which is southern IL. Not too far out of Evansville Indiana. Already been to landowners house and put all our stuff and sxs in his barn.

    Some of the nicest folks you will ever meet are out here

    I froze my arse off in Iowa last week with the bow. Saw a ton of young bucks and one 150ish 10 pt while I was hunting. Had him in bow range twice with no shot. Ended up killing an average 9 pt on my last sit. Honestly was very disappointed in what I saw considering what has come of this property in the past. I probably should have been there a week earlier.
