i am leaving in about an hour for romney, wv to meet my father who already went to set-up camp. he has already seen a handful of nice bucks in all the places where we usualy hunt so i think we will have success. i will be back on friday to prepare for the MD season. have ablast guys.
Good luck, shoot straight, go deep, hunt hard, bring out the big one!!!
well, i got a nice little 8 pt. on openiong morning. will post pics later, but then i got a big 130 lb. doe and a small little " suitcase" sized button buck. i had a great week, lotta fun in camp. anyone else have any luck??
i start the md season early in the morning so wish me luck, im going after that big 8 pt that got away twice during bow season!!
I saw one deer opening morning (Grant County, near Pendleton and Hardy counties), didn' t hunt the afternoon except for the porch of the cabin due to rain. Then I saw about 14 on Tuesday morning in a better spot. I let a 4 pointer walk because we only shoot 6 or better. I also let a bunch of does walk, and my buddy got a doe. No sightings of any keeper bucks! Next year, I may have to lift the point rule because the neighbors blast whatever they see, and 5 years of letting small ones walk is showing no results. I hope WV adopts Pennsylvania' s point restrictions so we' ll have more nice ones around...
I hunted Maryland this morning and saw 4 does. My buddies there also saw a few does each. Again, no nice bucks to speak of! I haven' t fired a shot with bow or gun this year. Oh well, I still had fun and it' s not over yet...
First year in 25 years of deer hunting that I never even seen a deer opening day of Md rifle season. (Western Md public land) Also the first year I never killed a deer in western Md. Luck for me I aquired some Private property. Needless to say,I put two nice bucks in the dirt with the bow. thank God for private property!!!!!!
