As of now I am going to a local college. Next fall I plan on going away to a different college thats 3 hours away. For you guys that were in college and were few hours away from the woods you hunt in did you come back every weekend to going hunting?

I' m about 4.5 hours away from home. I go home about one weekend a month to hunt, otherwise I do some waterfowl hunting in ND. I' m really lucky because I have permission to bowhunt some private land, about 50 acres or so, about 25 minutes from campus. I would suggest looking for public or private land near school, that way you' ll get to hunt more.

As far as going home I tend to do it alot. I make the trip everyweekend that i can during deer and rabbit season. i love to hunt and i dont really know were to go up here and i dont really have alot of time. So I just wait for the weekend and head out on my 2 1/2 hour trip.

I am 3 DAYS from home. So I have no choice but to hunt here. The land is all public. My room mate and I hunt chucker, phesant, blue/ruffed grouse, duck, and dove. I also got a mulie. And we are going to apply for spring turkey.

But I am sick of not being able to hunt at home, so I am going to take next fall semester off and hunt every day.

I' m a junior in college. I' m an hour and a half from home. However, I go to college in southwest Oklahoma. I just found myself some land to hunt here, about 15 minutes from my university! so I go about 2-3 times a week if I want.

Nope, haven' t been to college since the 70' s. If you are goiung to college now, you wouldn' t remember the 70' s except for That 70' s show on TV.

Anyway, I didn' t hunt game back them, only women and not with a gun.

I came home a good bit when I first went away to school but I found some places real close to campus to hunt. Matter of fact I could walk out my dorm to my hunting spot, and managed to shoot a doe.

I guess I could find a area to hunt close to campus. I dont want to have my hunting equipment down on campus. Plus I am to cheap to buy a hunting license. Its nice haveing your own woods that family owns and dont need a license. I just hope I dont get talked into just staying and drinking the whole weekend.

I went to college in West Virginia the late 70s. I didn' t hunt but I was friends with several staff members who did and could have gone hunting if I were a hunter back then. I was introduced to black powder at college, and hard to believe now, we actually shot our guns on campus, in a field next to the library.

I' m an hour and 5 min. from home. I' ve gone home every weekend since bow season started and I' ll probably go home every weekend till Christmas break to hunt. I' ve even skipped a few Friday classes so I could go home on Thursday night to hunt all day Friday!
