Just applied for my Illinois permit, and I have to say, what a joke their tagging system is.

Anyways, firming up plans for Illinois and Kentucky in late April early May.

Anyone else heading there?

We are looking at another state to add to the list on the way back from out west this year. I've got a ton of family land in Illinois that I've never stepped foot on. I guess that could be an option.

Better check into it quick. 2nd lottery deadline is Monday.
Depending on the county, a lot of them will be out of tags after this drawing.

I'm not to worried about IL really, MO is where I'm interested right now. I probably should head up to IL and deer hunt one year so i can scout for turkey season.

I'll be in Kentucky. I've got a lease in Christian County and there's a ridiculous amount of birds on it. Thing is hardly anyone else hunts the ground besides one other guy. Usually done in the first weekend. I just wish I could find some ground around here half as good!

I literally just went through the process of applying for the first lottery but got mad at their insane process and just said the heck with it. Plus I don't know for sure that I will be able to go due to baseball.

Pretty sure the 1st lottery is for residents only, If I read it correctly?
