Waiting to hear about the one that didn't get away. Good luck and take lots of pictures. Those big Illinois whitetails look like major fun.

Good luck BJim. That's a pretty far drive but I'll bet it's worth it. Hope that the conversation is great coming back and look forward to seeing photos.

If you take a wrong turn and end up by Tazewell County , stop in and have a beer or cup of coffee. Good luck on your hunt.

Hey Big Jim, good luck! Will you be around November 6th through the 15th?  I'll be hunting near Griggsville.  Maybe I can meet up with you somewhere.

With 82# is there a bad shot on a deer? I'd say the Texas heart shot would be the ideal spot.     :thumbsup:

Good luck Jim, can't wait for the update.

Have fun and definitely leave those worries at home/shop.
There's no place for them on a hunting trip.

GO GET EM JIM!!!

Having had the pleasure of meeting Big Jim a few years back at a TBG Hunt on a WMA in his neck of the woods... I must say is is as nice as a summer day is long... Intimidating in size, but as we say down South... "He's Good People!"     :notworthy:    

Fer y'all folks who are amazed with Jim's bow weights, you don't realize that he is really a Big Guy... and Big Jim is appropriate!!! Since he's twice my size (I mean Big Strapping Country Boy STRONG working muscle type big fellar) no one ever is wondering how I can can shoot a 54# (at my draw weight bow????) After all that is about proportitionately the same...       :dunno:
