Well lets see them!

I got a 6 at Phelps WMA this morning.....20 yard shot at 7:50....he made it about 40 yards. Pretty good start to the season. It was your typical (for Phelps) big bodied buck with a poor rack.

Nice deer Mitch and great shot! I only got to go out this am and didn't have any action at all other than a few squirrels. Beautiful morning and nice to be back in a tree though!

alright way to go i be hunting in the am a pettgrew monday :party0007:

Nice deer Mitch, I was able to get out for the morning only but only saw a small doe for about 2 secs. Hoping to get out some more soon.

Saw 5 does on quantico, didn't shoot. Sure was nice to be out though! Tried out my new lonewolf setup, DEF LOVING IT!!!

mitchmtm1, nice going good to see someone got one.


Hoytspeed you know that called baiting, keeping those doe around. you should be ashamed of yourself.lol buddy

Anybody have any luck seeing deer on Quantico I did not get a chance to get out Saturday or Monday what's Quantico looking like thous far I HATE the new phone system change is very very hard I like the old system better defiantly

Nice job Mitch! I was out in the evening and had does and a spike all over me. 12 deer total but the big does wouldn't come into range and the spike I drew on just to know I could have taken him. No harvest but a great first day out!!

Hunted Quantico Mainside this morning, saw a basket 6 point....let him walk. Waitin on the big boys! Having some pretty good luck thus far

Nice buck there! That will be some good eating. I got a 120lbs. doe on opening day in the evening. I hunt just down the river from Phelps, but across on the other side. Not too far from Kelly's Ford. Good luck to all you hunters.

Nice deer.

I hunted Chickahominy WMA and had a doe at 15 yds but she was already spooked and didn't stand still for me. I went out in the woods near my house yesterday and had 3 does at 30 yds but no shot either. Soon though, I hope. :)

Nice! Especially for Phelps on opening day! I was out there 4 days this week and skunked every day. Saw very few deer for some reason. Everyone I've spoken to out there has had hard hunting this year too for some reason.

What part of Phelps were you hunting when you got your 6?

I was hunting behind the managers res parking area quite a ways back in and by the river. I also picked up a doe Wednesday evening....so 2 hunts....2 deer seen...2 deer killed. My numbers of deer seen are down, but I'm liking the quality shots I've been getting.
