RE: Illinois Public Hunting
Here are some good ones. Ray Norbut, Siloam Springs & Buckhorn. There are great bucks on these public grounds. Yes there will be hunting pressure. You will have to find the spots that are not pressured. They are there. If you want to hunt public ground you really need to do some homework on it. Check it out, find the places that are likely to have high pressure & the low pressure ones. Don't expect to just show up & have a good hunt. If you don't want to put in a little research time & scouting time then I would suggest that you go with a outfitter.
