Thanks for the info Bob, I was actually in Chicopee last night at the Max Cap for the amateur fights. Of the WMA is there any that you would suggest over the others? since i'm a student I have pretty limited time for scouting and such so any advice would be great. Is it just me or are Mass hunting regulations a pain in the @$$? You can't use a rifle to deer hunt you have to use a shotgun,, muzzleloader or bow, but then you can't use a shotgun to bear hunt you have to use a rifle, muzzleloader or bow. haha and don't get me started on their gun laws...I would mostly be interested in bow hunting anyway. How are things in Connecticut as far as hunting?
