Default WooHoo!

I'm still down in FL and I've been helping my 84 YO neighbor out with some of his chores. Such a sweet old man and his wife. He's a minister and very soft spoken. We have gotten to know a lot about each other and he knows I like hunting whitetails. Well a couple days ago he gave me exclusive permission to hunt his 1000 +/- acre property in WV which neighbors state lands. He told me there is an old house on the property that I can stay in too. No electric but its dry and will keep me out of the weather. I'm going to be heading there some time during the late summer and have a look around.

He tells me the place is just crawling with deer! when I told him I would get a topo map and he can draw the boundarys for me he said you'll probably see deer on the map and laughed.

If you get ONX hunt app he can show you where it is and it will have the legal recorded boundaries along with the public land boundaries. I use it religiously now.

If you need a strong, young back to drag your deer out... You know my number

West Virginia has some special antlerless gun seasons for private lands too that are nice to hunt.

Don't worry about the young and old above How about a mid 40's guy that you can trust to hold your gun while you drag your own deer out lol
