We've been working hard the past few weeks to come up with some big changes to our vendor policies to meet the changing needs of our community. Please see the new vendor rules here: Vendor Access Area Rules

I've rode through there. A lot of good looking area. But the area is too far from me to scout and hunt efficiently. I have too many areas closer to home to give this area attention. If you are within reach, it's worth the effort.
I hunt mostly the state forest up in Nelson county but a little of the national forest that adjoins it.
I hunt white oak a handful of times a year. My mom-in-law lives in Danville. What do you want to know? It gets hit hard and it is one of the few WMA's that allows running deer dogs, not happy about that.
It looked like and interesting area with all the edge but all the roads was a concern. You answered my question. Thanks
There are some good deer in there. I mainly only hunt either sex days, I am meat hunting. I do go the Friday (buck only day) after Thanksgiving. Shot a large 8 the Friday after Thanksgiving and I bigger doe the next day. You have to find your spot. The deer are there.
Hunted Fairystone last year using boat to get to hard to reach places. Ended the week with nice doe but did not find the bucks. Scouted it some more this spring but did not find good sign. Been hunting the Blue Ridge but looking for different opportunities.
Really? Surprised they allow dogs that far west. Thought that was just a low country/beach thing.

I just got my "YOU ARE A LOSER" email.
And I didn't win the elk lottery either.

It isn't the $15, it is the rejection and the state of VA hates me.
Just a PSA. The 2023-2024 hunting season regulations are posted on the Virginia DWR.
There is an Early and Late Antlerless Season added for Bedford - maybe some others, but I was focused on my surrounding counties.
The definition does not explicitly say on private lands only, but I suspected and verified with the DWR these season are for private lands only.
The definition does not specify private land only but other sections do.
Personally I'm kinda of happy about the private land restriction because the season is a month before the Archery opener. I know what these deer do a day or two after the muzzleloader opener, so this would basically reduce my hunting season to scouting season.

Virginia guys, do any of you have a good bow case suitable for air travel that you would be interested in selling? I figure this is a more productive and direct route than posting on the classified. Shipping would be outrageous I would assume.
