so this is not like public land anyone can hunt on? Im new to all this Im from WV and had property to hunt on that and public land which anyone could hunt on. what do I got to do to get to hunt on one of these WMAs? I really need somewhere to hunt this year I mainly bow hunt
they are like no other, lol.....some of the wmas are set up as quota hunts only, which you have to be drawn for to hunt.(apps. have already been chosen for this year)
some are part quota/part first come , first served.....like bullcreek....the first 9 days of each hunt, archery, muzzleloader and gun are set aside for the quota hunts...then on the 10th day, it's open to whoever gets there first.......
you can bow hunt during the general gun hunts, but you'd have alot of competition with the gun hunters....so i would advise bow hunt only during archery season.....imo....
i would look into grn. swamp.....see what the rules/regs are for this year.....and go from there...
