    I put together the story of my trip to IL. Those of you that know me from my years on this site know that this is a big moment for me and I wanted to share it with you all. I know I haven't been around to post as much as in the past due to my job, but I'm still on here reading and keeping tabs on you all.

    Please take a look. I know it's long but you can skip to the juicy stuff.

    Best of luck all. Shoot straight.

    I bet your son was as excited as you were, he'll look good on his wall.

    Awesome story. Sounds like it would've been a great hunt even without your wall hanger. Congrats.

    The pics got firewalled on me :rant: but great story and congratulations. I love it when someone's stick-to-itiveness pays off with a great reward.
