RE: We now interrupt the deer discussion...
Thanks, Ducsauce. I appreciate your advice. I was thinking it might be fun to call turkeys after I shoot that big buck and I’m waiting on my hunting partner to come back ( I hunt in Rockingham County, so only one deer per day (won’t be an issue, I’m sure)).
BTW: The VA website has a nice one-page “cheat sheet” now that shows all of the seasons in a glance. This fall Turkey bow season starts Oct. 7 (same as deer) and ends Nov. 11, although there are some variations by county that aren’t on the sheet, it’s a nice little thing to carry in your pocket in case you see something and wonder if you can shoot it. My hunting buddy turned down an opp to shoot a turkey last fall because he couldn’t remember if it was in season. He was madly dialing on his cell phone trying to call someone who knew. Of course, all of the people who knew had their cell phones turned off because they were hunting…
