I've seen birds during deer season, but I hunted gobblers there last season every weekend and never heard a bird. People say there are lots of turkeys on base. Hunters kill nice deer every year, I was after a good one during archery season but never sealed the deal.Good luck and be safe there are alot of hunters out there.

I would hunt the 1st area that borders Quantico Nationak Cemetery.I was in there a week ago shed hunting and they had it all torn up there was a bunch of them also.

22 deer in your first 7 years thats impressive.I used to live right next to Quantico and I know there are alot of deer there.The whole Rt 1 corridor has alot of deer I used to shed hunt it from 1 end to the other with alot of success.
Do you use a mouth call ,slate or box?I always prefered a mouth call because it kept my hands free and I could practice with it while watched tv at night.Goodluck

Mouth Call I Practiced it over the last summer and can use it good now just hard to find or roost the birds in quantico becuase u can go there at night other wise it would save use hunters half the battle so u have to walk in blind and hope you can roost one in the morning yeah ive shot sum good deer off quantico my best way a 9 point with a kicker off the back from 9B off Garissonville area of quantico dressed 116lbs and a 18 1/2 spread

A couple weks ago when I was there shed hunting.I noticed that there was a decent acorn crop and I concentrated on those and it appeared the turkeys did also because scratches were everwhere.I would start with the white oak flats if I were you.

I would start with white oak flats.When I was shed hunting there acouple of weeks ago I saw where they had gone to town on the white oak acorns
