    My name is Jesse, I'm from Central IL. Just put my first season of bowhunting under my belt, long story short I came up empty handed but had a few opportunities. Needless to say I'm addicted. I hunt two 80 acre properties in Schuyler County along with Jim Edgar Panther Creek regularly just to change it up. Also a few little spots around Sangamon County if I don't have time for a drive. Looking forward to reading up and sharpening some things for the upcoming season. :fro:

    Newbie to the site here. Heading out to JEPC sunday I will be there with my 13 year old nephew this weekend Sun/Mon. His first trip ever bowhunting (and my first post-rotator cuff surgery bowhunt in 5 years) and it looks like a good weekend to be there. I drew Hardin county for my gun tags, but try for JEPC every year. I've taken some nice deer from there. Being a city boy with a country heart and mindset, I treasure every opportunity to get out into the bush.

    Stop by the 1983 Rockwood pop-up for a cold Miller Lite and a swig of Knob Creek. We will have the fires burning.
