I Did not join 2 years ago(after 25 years) because i had much better places to go here in nova. the last couple of my years there w/ morlen i only paid dues--never even made it into the woods. plus it was a 100 mile drive. traffic on 95 on thru fredericksburg made my decision not to join easier. they do get some real lunker racks out of morlen every now and then. but the body size of loudoun,fauquier, and fairfax are much larger than fluvanna. it does nto help that they hit the ground running when born down there because of all the dogs
I know exactly what your talking about. I experience the exact same thing every year and it seems to be getting worse as the years progress. Deer sightings seem to be getting fewer and fewer out there.The drive is terrible from NOVA to Fluvanna in traffic.Nothing against the dogs, but after the first two weeks of gun season in Fluvanna the deer are gone unless the dogs are hot on them. I saw 6 deer last night while hunting less than20 minutes from where I live. I still love going out to Fluvanna though.I've been hunting thereas far back as I can remember. BTW-the president of Morlen shot an absolute MONSTERP&Y10 point the year before last on the last day of the season.
