sweet old bill Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 If you are talking about in VA, there is lots of state land to hunt. The problem is it is big trees, not much logging to give lots of young trees for the deer. I lived for about 12 years in Manassas and found a place in West VA and it also had state land George Washington natural forrest, and lots of farms in the area that was willing to allow you to bow hunt.

sweet old bill Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 I hunted in the Kirkwood area for both deer and brown rabits and always saw deer so it can not be a bad area. With all state areas it is best in Spet to do some checking out the land for travel routes of the dder and I am sure you will find some good spots...

erussell Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 How is the hunting in Skyline Drive State Forest, My family has a cabin near there and I was looking at getting land there. [email protected] Over hunted, lots of hikers, and people practicing with guns during the bow season. Its a small patch of land only about 300 acre's of the 500 are actually huntable. And when the snow fly's the entrance hill is a death trap. Slid the 200 yrds down hill once and never went back in the snow. Besides that its a really pretty way to get to a tag sandwich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
