Staff members Justin Zarr & Mike Willand made the all-night drive to their hunting lease in West Central Illinois for the opening weekend of archery season.  These two bowhunters were looking forward to their first harvest of the year on film, but as fate would have it the bucks laid low and didn't present any shooting opportunities.  However, they did have some great encounters with a lot of does and even a few turkeys.
