IllinoisHunter.com was created by a small group of Central Illinois sportsmen who wanted an easier way to find useful information about hunting in Illinois. Although a great deal of useful information is out there on the "Net," finding it is not always easy. For example, at http://dnr.state.il.us (the comprehensive Illinois Department of Natural Resources website,) useful hunting information can be buried several navigation levels deep. Instead of trying to relay a complicated web address to a buddy over the phone, it will be simpler just to send them to IllinoisHunter.com!
