Both deer my child shot this year tested positive based on what thr dnr told us. We've been eating both of them.

Count your blessings. Illinois is now projected to run seasons through the end of Feb. Good luck to you guys.

Hmm, not saying it's not something to pay attention to, but I'm not going to buy it just because the cdc says so. Don't forget to get your booster cdc. Yeah they're honest. Pretty sure all the human health problems are from Americans being like 5000% overweight these days. Weigh 330 lbs but...

Usually it means removing a bully buck that has less than optimal antler growth so as to make room for different, younger deer that may or may not become something great. Most guys understand you're not actually culling to improve a wild herd's genetics.

Straight up ehd this year for us in my tiny part of Illinois. Farm chemicals have been around forever throughout all the greatest boom years of the whitetail. We have coyotes, cwd, snipers, modern technologies in hunting...and yet we still had the worst crop damage from deer in the past dozen...

Nice buck! good job

IMO the fact that he's "almost" a 5.5 helps somewhat. If he was a 3.5 scoring the same that makes it worse. A 2.5 even worse. Then you really would feel awful shooting a 2.5 scoring 175. Just how I see it. I bet a lot of the guys saying to pass him up already have a 175" on the wall. I...

Hard to deny a man shooting his biggest buck ever. Would you be happy or always sad you settled for a "young" deer?

Looks like a fun one to survey!

I think the person who said there's less hunters is the same broad who missed Trump in IA by 16 points.

Cool. How many acres of RC Big Rock get harvested? I'll order a 5 lb bag to sprinkle here and there. Put 10 lb down this year and it did pretty well, probably mostly 5' tall.

Same over here in IL. Bad ehd also.

Was hoping landslide and sure haven't seen it yet. Nervous.

Nice buck, but I gotta know, what's your shirt say?!

We had .68 finally last night but I couldn't get any more down before that. If the chances later next wk stay in the forecast I'll spread a few bags.

LOL. "Stop falling for the lies" Never been any fraud. Move along. Nothing to see. All is well.

For the modern democrat party the end always justifies the means. Most of them openly admit that.

Super impressive. Can't believe, well I can, that you passed him at 5 scoring 207. Maybe the biggest free range buck that's ever been passed??

Geez what a monster, congrats! Kinda resembles the legendary Nebraska General buck.

I think they'll eat diseased carcasses, just not ehd diseased carcass very much. Must be some kind of foul for those scavengers not to stomach them.
