OMG.... Where do I start...

First off: Are you talking deer hunting at Powhatan? Rabbit hunting? Waterfowl? The public WMA's get slammed hard during deer season especially on Saturdays. I mean, I don't want to act all funny and stuff, but on a Saturday - a crowded WMA during firearms season can be almost dangerous!

Trust me, okay? Trust me... I have been to Powhatan, Amelia, etc...etc... and got there real early before sunrise up on a ridge. When the sun came up, there was so much blaze orange, it looked like a &#*$%^ pumpkin patch! [:@] Been there, done that, never again... [:'(]

If you bowhunt Powhatan, Amelia, CF Phelps, during the week, you'll have better luck. But do your homework and scout hard and try to out-maneuver the other hunters - as they might push a nice buck to you!

Even though I'm in Richmond, I flatly refuse to hunt the local WMA's. Like I said earlier... been there, done that, never again. [:'(] I head west to the George Washington Nat'l Forest, where it's more spread out and more peaceful.

Good luck.
