What's up Virginians! I was going to go out this evening but decided to let them repopulate my area. Remember about the time change before going out, this can really mess with your planned hunt. They should let use vote on the time change after all it is OUR internal clocks. I heard next year it will be moved into november. Anyways good luck and post some more pics!

I've harvested a couple nice ones from Quantico. It's hard to evening hunt it though with the time restrictions and all. You should talk to some locals about hunting right in Nokesville it's about 5 minutes from whereI hunt in Catlett. I'm the only one with permission to hunt here though. It's been kind of a 15 year struggle to finally get a good spot to hunt so I'm not doing anything to jeopardize it.

I here ya Dave...hard to get hunting land. I have killed the majority of my deer from Quantico over the last 5 years...that place is a god send for me. That is the only place I really hunt. I have a farmer across the road from me that I could ask, but I kind of enjoy the challenge of Quantico, beautiful land. I am taking off the next two days to really key in on two bucks I have targetted this year on Quantico.

Are they allowing crossbows? There's some really good bow only areas too. I don't want to talk about it to much though. A couple of my freinds freaked out just because there was an article about Quantico in some magazine. Good luck, you'll get him.

Yes they allow crossbows, I just have no interest. Dave, I hear you about wanting to keep people off good areas. The fact is that Virginia Game and Fish runs at least 1-2 articles on all the major military bases that are open to hunting every year, Quantico is mentioned every time. Fact is, alot of hunters dont want to bother with the check in procedures at Quantico and I for one like it becauase it keeps people out. Another fact is that most hunters dont like to go in more than 200-300 yards to hunt, and that leaves alot of places unspoiled regardless of the amount of people that hunt the place. I love the place.
