We'll be out there waterfowl & rabbit hunting this year, hope to see you. You're welcome to hunt w/ us, always looking for good hunters to join the party.

RE: Quantico 2008
 

I am new to Quantico. Does Quantico need any pre-reservation or lottery or any other requirement for bow hunting? Or I should ask what are the procedures before hunting over there? Do you hunt in Mainsideor Guadalcanal side? Any information about there will be very helpful to me.

RE: Quantico 2008
 

There's a base safety video you need to watch and if I remember correctly you need to qualify w/ your bow.

RE: Quantico 2008
 

Yeah to what cool said, mainside must qualify... video and qualify in the same day not too difficult [&:]

RE: Quantico 2008
 

coolbrze0,VaSavage270, thanks for your answers. I just passed the qualify and got my permit yesterdayto hunt on quantico!:D:Dhope to see some of you folks over there.

RE: Quantico 2008
 

Have fun hunting on the base. When i was there i was carrying an M-16 instead of a shotgun and everybody was screaming at me[:@]

RE: Quantico 2008
 

I arrowed three deer on Quantico last year..a doe, a 6 point, and an 8 point. If you kill a 150 class buck on base, you will be near the base record....not many bucks taken over 120 inches on base.

My brother just called me from VA to let me know someone shot a 26 pointer on mainside today (before the rain). If anyone has a photo, please post it. He told me the guy shot it pretty close to the golf course.

RE: Quantico 2008
 

Yes there was a 26 point buck killed at quantico last week. they have a picture in the weigh in shed. Its a non typical, right side is very deformed. nice kill tho

RE: Quantico 2008

RE: Quantico 2008
 

yup thats the same one. He was hunting on mainside. From his profile, looks like he's taken alot of nice bucks over there, and they're all taken in early november right near the rut. I will be on mainside hunting a couple days first week or two in nov!

RE: Quantico 2008
 

Good luck and Semper Fi ! Share those pics.

RE: Quantico 2008
 

yeah that was a very nice buck i hunted mainside all last week didnt see anything but i know there are some very big bucks over there hunted over on mainside last season and saw over 15 deer each time i went out and over 5 bucks in one trip last season killed a descent 7 point weight 92lbs but starting to put my time over there fulltime becuase there are truely some monsters over there and he killed it in PA7 top of golf course

RE: Quantico 2008
 

A lot of people are catching onto the mainside craze. It is just a matter of time until people start killing alot of those bucks and the magic of the mainside is lost.
