    Hello everyone,

    I recently moved to IL from AZ and will be bow hunting for the first time this season. I'm really excited! I will be hunting in Fulton county and Lake county on private land. I can't wait for the season to open!

    Best of luck to all,
    David

    Good luck this season!

    I'm moving to somewhere in southern McHenry County or SW Lake county myself from Upstate, NY. I should be there in first week of November. I'm actually headed out there this upcoming week to look at houses and put a deposit down on something.

    Good luck again. There are a LOT of members on this board from the NW suburbs, I'm sure more will be along soon.

    Thanks! Where in Lake County do you hunt? I've seen some great deer in the last few months. My parents own a farm in central IL, so I'm hoping to see some activity there as well.
