Hi CFCE,
how are you doing, I moved to the area (Orange Co.) last year as well and found it REAL hard to find a good place to hunt for the season. I had some luck on some private property of a friend I met at work, a 10 ptr & a spike. The 10 ptr is on my wall right now

But what I wanted to tell you was late in the season, mid Dec, I started to explore / hunting with a bow, one of the WMA and found there was hardly any one there during the week, 2 or 3 people at the most, on 10k acres. I found places where the deer had been tearing up the accorns under the oak trees, lots of rub & scraps on riges. Being to noise I spooked up 2 deer one day. I know i will be scouting some of this territory early in oct to set up tree stand / ambush sites and look for others. I am Real INTERESTED in the hunt club VA HUNTER is trying to set up, have the money set aside burning a hole in my
