Anyone ever hunt the NCTC in WV?
I am heading out to the orientation on Tuesday, and wondering if anyone has any insight into which are the better areas to hunt? They do assign you a stand, but I am guessing that, atleast for bow season, they have more stands than bow hunters signed up and qualified.
(I applied for 5 hunts, 2 bow and 3 gun, and got 4 of the 5. The only one I did not get was the day after Thanksgiving gun hunt...the first gun hunt day on the property) |
To be honest I'm not quite sure what NCTC is. Care to elaborate? It sounds nice from what you're saying.

I live in Martinsburg and know that area around the NCTC pretty well....some very nice bucks in the general vicinity, but I'm afraid I cant speak to the actual fws land. I heard they make you take a couple of doe(s) first, is that true???
are these one day only hunts??? |

are these one day only hunts??? The hunts are either a morning or evening hunt, with 2 archery only days, 2 shotgun days and 1 muzzleloader day. The thing I like least about it is that deer taken count against your regular tag limits...they really should use their federal standing and make these 'free' deer, especially since you must earn a buck. I am going to hunt archery opening morning there, and I will update on Sunday. I also have a slot for a morning shotgun hunt on Dec 3, which I am looking forward to because I will bring my 9 year old son who can sit next to me in the big 2 person stands they have installed. |
