Where are my fellow Georgians?

[TonyGreenway]

Alright guys, I need some help. Any advice or suggestions for rifle hunting at Berry College WMA on November 1st and 2nd? I've never hunted there, and was drawn for the quota hunt this year. If you haven't hunted there specifically, do you have any advice for that part of the state (Rome) or similar terrain? I'm going to do some archery hunting/scouting up there beforehand, but need all the help I can get. Any help at all would be very much appreciated.

I've never hunted it but I have a friend who has. According to him the place was severely overpopulated at one point and driving through the college campus was supposedly like driving through a petting zoo. Good luck, keep me posted.

That's what I've heard. I know they started quota rifle hunts for that very reason, and have successfully knocked the population down considerably. I'm hoping to get onto a couple does, and if I happen upon a set of antlers, good for me. I really just want to fill my and my grandparents' freezers, and enjoy the peace of the woods. I don't want to waste the opportunity, so I'm hoping to get some pointers from guys that have been there. I've got a buddy that bow hunts there every year, and he might be able to hunt/scout with me some to figure out what I'm going to be doing come November. Thanks for the well wishing, and I most certainly will keep you posted.
