I just got back from picking my dad up. They have a little a-frame just past Stockton, surrounded by corn feilds. I had the intention of asking the local land owner if I could bow hunt his land. I come to find out that someone who owns one of the other houses there has been tearing up the farmers feild on their 4x4's. He has since put blockades up so noone can enter his property and if he even finds out you live there automatically you're a jerk. Apparently he's gotten into arguments with some people that live there full time. I'm really steamed as I saw a couple of deer out there just today. I don't blame the farmer at all and if I knew who tore up his feild he wouldn't be right for quite a while. 

I have no point really just wanted to vent.

Galena IL?
Been on the snow ski's there a time or two but that was over ten years ago. Nice country side with a lot of brush draws & open pockets for that pred calling.

Bad news on the four wheelers. They are a great tool but it only takes a little misuse to make a land owner shut off the access to their property. You can hardly blame them, specially if equipment damage and or theft starts happening.

I don't think there was any kind of theft or equipment damage, they just tore the feilds up. And no I don't blame the land owner at all, I'd have done the same or worse if it was me.
