grow up man. all your doing on here is starting controversy. and as for all i know this is not the place for it. i never said anything that would make people assume that i poached anything so get over whatever you have against me and grow up.

ok lets see one i am not a poacher, and u have no evidence to prove that i am. and two, i dont ever recall ever getting a call from the dnr so, once again grow up man. ur just one of these people that wants to start things over a computer, which is what a little kid would do.

i did tell my story. i do guides on the land that m family owns, all i did was name the title of the dicussion "My kills from this year", and i was labeled as a "poacher" they were killed by three different guys from tennesssee, the guy holding the deer up in the picture is the one who killed the monster and the other 2 were killed by 2 different guys, that were also taking pictures. so there u got it for the second time. take what u want from it. im just tired of this guy whoever he is, threating me over the computer like he's someone. he's acting like a child and needs to grow up.

lets see if if i cant put it in terms even "you" can understand. one i didnt take credit for anyone elses kills. two, im going to get a call from the dnr for what? and three why are u even writing on this discussion? all your doing is causing unnecessary drama, whereas i have given some useful advice. you make no sense, and have no ideas as to what your talking about. so once again grow up, or maybe this is as much as you can grow up.

Sorry to hi-jack but. So who is the girl in the photo? Did the guy from TN bring his daughter up to hunt with you while you were guiding? His wife to to watch the little one also? I have a 9-month old & I am not dragging him down to deer camp this Friday. The story doesn't smell right? The post said "my kills" and then you post pics of some other guy? Sort of weird. Why didn't you respond that way in the original thread? There is nothing wrong with posting someone elses deer...just don't take credit for it. Obviosly they have tags so they are legal.

And Tim...the bucks are movin real good. They have been for a at least two weeks now here in West Central IL. I gun hunt in Johnson County and there is usually good breeding activity in 1st gun season. Some does are already bred by this time but bucks will leave one and search for another.

Good luck...post pics of deer you get.

later.

Been seeing alot of shooter bucks roaming out in fields. Thing is, its kinda hard to take one with a bow haha. Seems like everyday its getting better and better. Passed a decent 130 class lastnight, hopefully he makes it untill next year.

And on this hijacking stuff, I dont care who it has to do with or what the circumstances are, you dont get banned for no reason. Kinda gutsy and stupid to make up a new name and come back to somewhere, where you were banned. I wasn't even gonna say anything but this is getting redicouls. Tim started this thread to get info for his IL hunt, lets keep on the subject. If anyone feels they need to keep up with childish fourm fight, make a new thread and keep it there. I would hate to see this thread get locked when it was orginally started to get info on a hunt im sure Tim has been looking forward to for quite some time!

It has been very , very slow here in Pike County. I have seen several small bucks & one shooter. Haven't seen hardly any does. Yesterday afternoon I finally started seeing some does. Saw 15 or so, no bucks. I have talked to alot of guys, all hunting different areas, & none of them are seeing much. Have not talked to anybody that thinks they are moving good. That could change any time. The wind has been horrible. Feel maybe that has something to do with it. Very cold today. I am going to head out in a couple of hours & sit all day. I have moved to one of my favorite funnels. There are alot of bucks that go thru this spot when they are chasing, hoping they go thru today.

I'll take a slow day in Pike county over a slow day in Jo Davies any day!:D

It's been EXTREMELY slow in NW IL. I wasn't in the woods this past weekend, but my buddy that hunts the same land saw about 4 deer and one shooter from Saturday to Monday.

Went out tonight and was a long slow sit until...... a booner stepped out with a doe. I about fell outta my stand when the doe starts to come down the trail to me. Everything sounds like its gonna be the perfect come in on a rope story right. NOT!!! The doe walks by at 22 yards, I'm getting ready to draw as he walks behind a tree and is come'n my way. Then he takes 2 steps to the left and ends up being about 40 yards and NO clear shot!! I was so bummed. Everything was perfect untill he took those 2 steps to the left. I was so sick to my stomach I almost got sick. So yea everyday seems to be getting better Tim!

My buddy hunted our farm all day yesterday and said he had seen 19 deer by noon...then nothing the rest of the day.He said one nice buck was locked down with a doe for a few hours, the other deer were all singles or does with fawns.

Good luck Tim!

I'm heading out tonight and bowhunting tomorrow and gun hunting till Sunday.
