Sounds like you guys have found plenty of good places to hunt around Nova.
I drove about 2.5 hours to Rapidan WMA last Friday, I took someone hunting for the first time so we just took 22s and shot at some squirrels, but my main intention was to scout for a good spot for deer (never been there before). Well, he missed all the squirrels he shot at and I didn't see anything that looked half decent for deer.
