    I'm done.

    Every year after I take my first buck.. I kinda relax a little and usually take several days off of hunting.

    This year I didn't want to do that.. kept after them.

    Took this buck yesterday eve. I'm done and tired as all Haitis from driving all over the state of Illinois over the past 6 weeks.

    Thanks to Justin for the beautiful pics. Enjoy. Wish I still had the stache though.:(

    Well done my friend, well done indeed.

    I was thinking - if Johnny and Dano come back down to IL late season we should go film them for a weekend. I'm sure it would be a blast!

    Good job, Mike... maybe you've had some mock scrapes not work in the past, but I think you just made up for those! :D
