Illinois Whitetail Deer Hunts, Schuyler and Fulton County

HUNT THE TRIANGLE!

Everyone knows about THE GOLDEN TRIANGLE and the big bucks it does produce year after year. This is a trophy whitetail hunt without the trophy whitetail prices! We are speaking #1 state and #2 counties in the nation, I would bet on those odds anytime! We are even saying low prices, big bucks and no trophy fees!

Illinois has long been the monster buck capital of the world! Also Illinois has more trophy bucks than any other state. Now if you’re looking for the best trophy hunt you've ever experienced, then you've got to try us. We have land in both FULTON and Schuyler counties in the "Golden Triangle" area of Illinois.

If you've never been on a monster buck hunt you really need to try one with us. We believe it will be the best hunting you have ever experienced in your entire life!

If you suddenly had a 160 inch buck only 20 yards away from your stand, what would you do? Could you control yourself long enough to get a shot?  We run about a archery P&Y opportunity and only take a total of 20 hunters per year in up to 3000 acres.

The 3 day gun is the most successful hunt as far as deer taken just not for the highest scoring racks. We locally carry about a 1 buck to 1 doe balance which provides many big bucks for the hunter. The agricultural land is in corn, and soybeans.

This area is home to a large population of trophy whitetails due to hunting regulations placed by the Illinois Department of Natural Resources, which placed restrictions on hunters, and outfitters. The soil make up in this area is rich and is a good source of food for these whitetails. 

Firearms and Archery for Hunting 

The Illinois Department of Natural Resources limits firearms hunters and outfitters can use to muzzleloaders and shotguns. Rifles and long range guns are not allowed. This limitation has helped to maintain a healthy population of whitetail trophy bucks because short shotgun and muzzleloaders do not have the capacity to kill targets at long distances. As a result whitetails live longer and get bigger - becoming real prized trophy game. 

The firearms tags and permit system in Illinois is facilitated mainly through a lottery system which we assist all hunting adventurers with. We help all our customers with information about obtaining the right permits. The requirements are not stringent and almost everyone receives a tag upon paying a small fee. 

The Hunting season starts on the 1st of October and ends on the 15th of January. In addition to shotgun firearm hunts, the state of Illinois offers archery or bow and arrow hunting permits. These tags or permits are easier to obtain than firearms and our outfitting service and quickly help you with this. 

These tag purchase usually starts in July so you are encouraged to book early so we can start assisting you with getting your tag. This area has so many deer and so much private property that there are always licenses left over the draw.

Welcome, we offer excellent whitetail deer hunting for you on well over 2000 acres in Schuyler and Fulton County in western Illinois. As you may already know, western Illinois is the home to many of the biggest trophy whitetail bucks ever taken. 

Western Illinois is known throughout the world as a hunting destination not only for trophy bucks but also as a state that allows all hunters a good chance at killing a whitetail. 

According to the Department of Natural Resources, there are about 750,000 whitetail deer currently in Illinois, so the hunting season should once again be a success. Our bowhunting harvest is at record levels, firearms totals are outstanding and stable, and hunter success is high. Trophy deer are consistently taken in Illinois. See Illinois whitetail deer hunting stats.
