No gun season
West Virginia

Am I reading the regs right? Is there no gun season the week of Christmas.
In your case, probably not! LOL
I think there is the youth and family doe hunts between Christmas and New Years.
But I could be reading them wrong, which as we know is highly unlikely.
I thought the gun season in pendleton was year round? :-)
Sorry JR, I just couldn't pass up that one. All in fun.
Lol. You guys are right. I asked a guy one time down at the store when the fall turkey season started and he said. "When I see one" lol. It's sad. I also asked a guy if he wud vote for Sunday hunting and he said "I already hunt on Sunday.". I don't think there is any gun hunting the week of Xmas. I cud be wrong.
Seriously, It looks like there are those family and youth doe seasons.
So the day before these doe hunts come in, can you hunt in the bow only counties?
If they open on Monday then no. If they open any other day during the week, then you can.
yah finally another youth season. We don't have enough of those. Poachers get ready... Make sure you fill your son or daughters tag.... What a joke.
Not a joke Spec....My kids really enjoy it..I enjoy taking them and other kids that dont have the parents to take them.
You can take them when there arent a million buck hunters in the woods.
...A poacher is a poacher regardless....
I keep hearing about all the poaching that takes place on youth hunts, but you never hear of 1 person being caught....If you know of someone doing that turn them in..
I will take a step farther too....Should b either sex for the youth hunts as well...We like to comparer what OH and KY does with their buck limits, well guess what, youth hunt is anything goes...
Babysaph....Thats about stupid isnt it? Bow only closed because a gun season comes in somewhere else...LOL...Crazy law
I think the youth hunt shud be either sex too.
I am all for taking kids hunting, my kids love it to. But to setup different seasons for it is a joke. What ever happened to taking your kids during normal season. I am all about passing on the hunting heritage to our children but at the cost of the deer herd I do not agree. We do not need a special season during bow season or after gun season for a child to go out and get a deer. It is just another reason to sell a tag. I know several people who do this honestly but I know a lot of people who buy children tags for themselves and consider them their tags to fill.
Spec, I agree with you. But if you know people that are doing that then turn them in.
Nah, he just wants to continue to complain and blame it all on the dnr.
Spec, If you know several people to do it then it is your responsibility as a sportsman to turn them in.
I am all for the youth season. I would be ok if it included bucks but I think that having it doe only plays an importsant part in the future of hunter views in WV. i think we need a way to allow future sportsmen to believe it is ok to kill a doe.
I agree with that too spec. I went with my dad when I was little. I said that once on here and was blasted for it.
Kids should ahve a gun season. Period. To think otherwise is very self-serving.
They do have one. Two or three in fact. I think is should be either sex though. To make in does only is self serving.
