Many Years of hunting with my good friends...still hunting w/shotgun..then bow. "We've" walked almost every foot of Quantico..the Rod & Gun Club at Lunga are a bunch of older hunters who share info..then there are those guys who "hunt" year round..scout the off season until the ticks come out.

Best thing is once you've found a quality spot..its typical it will continue to produce unless something drastic happens like 16G. I took my 2nd best buck in 16G..then the tornado hit it..then they logged it barron..in 5 years that area will be GREAT again..but not now..

You just have to plug in the variables
1) Access / acreage..how accessable is area
2) Cover/Thick refuge type stuff, cutoffs
3) How often the area is open (the 8's, 11's are open only 1 or 2 times..mostly VIP hunting) so the deer get less pressure

3 is a kicker..1 and 2 are a must. They are easy to find...then you gotta outsmart them with tactics, gear and persistance.

Once you find 1 & 2...in one area..find then in EACH area so you can ber versatile and roll with the closings. After a while experience lets you FEEL your way just walking through the woods reading game trains.
