My heart was pounding and my knees almost gave out beneath me when he stepped into the cornfield; he was the most amazing deer I had ever laid eyes on, all I could do was pray to God that he would present a shot.

Illinois Whitetails
That was the beginning, of a passion and of a lifestyle. At that moment I realized that I wanted to help others experience that same feeling of exhilaration, The thrill of the hunt. My passion, grew even deeper each hunting season, deer after deer. Through that passion I developed Illinois Whitetails, with the mission to see the success of my hunters and to provide them with the opportunity to harvest their biggest deer. There's no other place in this great country that offers what central Illinois has. Which is why it is called The land of the Giants, it is the one place that your dreams can become reality.
