Trophy November Rut Gun Hunt

heartland — Wed, 23 Jun 2010 19:41:01 +0000

While making my rounds I have notice an increase in antler growth this year, whether or not it is due to the extremely wet spring and the growth of the food sources, or my imagination. I have already noted several trophy bucks with growth past there G 3’s and several within days of getting to that point. With all of the rain we have received this spring here in West Central Illinois and our food plots have grown to amazing levels supplying the whitetail herd a variety to choose from.

I am looking forward to a great year here in Pike County Illinois, and with all of the issues that surround the hectic life styles of the modern world, I can’t help but look to this year’s deer season to relief. I truly hope you have a chance to join us out in the woods this fall.

If you are looking for that true Illinois Trophy Buck I have 2 available rut gun hunts, on one of the best deer farms that this area has to offer. This hunt takes place on one of our 140″ managed farms that has been managed by our outfit for over 10 years and have produced some of the best hunts possible. You would arrive November 18, hunt the 19-21, and depart November 22. All meals, guides, and lodging included. Contact me at the office at 217-734-2526 if you would like more information on the hunt or you would like to book these spots. Thanks and I look forward to hearing from you. ~Matt
