Has been ready, re-qualifying this week however hoping the weather stays just about the same it's been all week and this coming rain should cool things down a little more. Belvoir my place of work and my place of urban archery.

VAhuntr, I would like to hunt the urban archery season but I can"™t find any property I had a few leads but they had a few bad apples in there before. They took all bucks no Does like they said they would. I"™m working on them but it doesn"™t look good. I work on a golf course in Arlington and we have about 10-15 deer some stay all year and some leave. There is this one buck that can"™t get out his front leg did not heal right, but he has it easy here he"™s a nice 10pt this year. It"™s hard to watch all these deer running around and can"™t touch them. But it does make for good practices for rattling and grut calling.

I understand that. I have been denied access before because of what people have done in the past. Can't do anything but keep trying. Does your area have a government GIS system? I use the GIS to look at aerial photos of potential sights and then get the landowners contact information. I have had excellent results doing this.
