End of your life hunt
Perrian Chandler lost his life while hunting with Carter's Outdoors (located in Milton, IL) due to a fall from a treestand. They were far from sympathetic to his surviving Daughters. They never even called to express their concern about his death. Due to their response to this tragedy, I would be very leary about hunting with them in the future. I would rate then 0 stars because this reaction shows more than words can express about their character.

Illinois Hunting Information
Illinois is widely known as a top trophy whitetail destination. Illinois also has some great waterfowl hunting, especially in southern portions of the state.
Iowa Hunting Information
Iowa is one of the best Midwestern states for monster whitetail bucks. Non-residents must apply for a tag in their annual drawing. Archery tags are the most sought after and depending on what units you apply for generally take 2-4 years to draw.
Utah Hunting Information
Utah has recently been outstanding for trophy elk, but the best tags take many years to draw. Utah does have conservation tags available for purchase that allow hunters to bypass the drawing. Given the high demand for these premium tags prices can be high. In the past Utah has been a top trophy mule deer state but recently only a handful of units consistently produce B&C caliber deer.
