Hiding in Plain Sight Then I saw him out of the corner of my eye. He had approached from behind and was standing 30 yards to my right and glared in my direction. His eyes seemed to search through every inch of the grass that I lay in, trying to locate the rabbit that lured him in. I remained still, waited for his shoulder to appear in my scope and squeezed the trigger. As I made my way to the coyote, I couldn't help but to admire the ghillie suit that had kept me hidden so well among the grass and wonder why I hadn't tried this before.

Illinois 16 Point Buck Opening morning of the 2007 Illinois shotgun season
would be a test in patience for my 18 year old son,
Joe Smith. Joe would be hunting an out-of-the way
finger of timber surrounded by cut corn known simply
as the curve. A handful of nice bucks had been shot
on the property by my Uncle, Steve Hayworth, but when
I scouted the property in October of 2007 during
bowhunting I was skeptical.
