Nice buck!! Should make a good mount

Yep! He’s at the taxidermist...my wife was out of the country for work so unfortunately we couldn’t discuss it .

Great Illinois buck. Congrats. I could only find a nice fat doe opening day of gun season on the public I hunt in west central Illinois but she filled the freezer nicely. Saw some studs studs on the same piece during bow season but nothing in range.

Congratulations, it's been a rough year in Illinois. I only seen 2 good bucks all year and much lower doe numbers than in the past.

Ditto! Very frustrating season this year in SIL with weather, pre-mature rut, and low numbers.

Had this dude come by about 11:45am on Friday, cruising for does. My biggest buck so far! He was 45 yards and when the 12 gauge slug hit him he looked he’d been hit by a lightning bolt. Don’t have a scale but it was by far the most meat I’ve ever got from a deer.
