Been bowhunting North Carolina since Sept. 10th. Even though it has been hot, the deerhave been moving pretty good. So far I have been fortunate enough to have taken 2 doe. Lookin forward to the Virginia season because I have several stands calling my name:D!

Iron Archer - where in VA are you located?

I live in Portsmouth, hunt in S. hampton county, Greensville couty and a VERY small place in Suffolk. The only reason I am going to hunt in Suffolk is to get home at a reasonable time in the afternoons for the early season.;)

warm here in the northern part of the state, but that won't stop me from going out. I am probably NOT going out opening morning, but that can change with the churning in my stomach (excitement). Hoping to save those vacation hours for later in the month. I've seen a really really nice eight that I hope to take opening day, and have been doing alot of dove hunting. I'll post here if I shoot something decent, or memorable.

I'm here! Acorns are so thick it's like walking on gravel and the Kentucky elk have wandered across the border(1/2 mile) and mowed my food plots to the dirt. I am re-seeding tomorow in hopes of keeping the around.

What processor do you take your deer to? What kind of meat do you get and what are the prices? Manassas Frozen Foods is the closest to where I hunt.

I'm here and ready to roll.......Ive had my entire setup re-built on my high country. Ive been shooting tacks. I have a really nice double blind setup in the middle of a cutover very close to a swamp. A ladder stand on the corner of another cutover bordering a swamp and of course my climber. Everything is ready to rock!!!
