New guy from WV

[JoshKeller]

Hello, new guy here. I hunt primarily WV and occasionally pa, but I’d like to think I’m hunting terrain similar to the out west guys. I find most of my biggest whitetail on the national forest in 3800 - 4200 ft - packing in several miles, setting up a base camp, and then hunting from there


Looks like lots of good info on this forum.

As the self-appointed chairman of the welcoming committee, it is my privilege to extend a laurel, and hearty handshake (virtual, of course) to our new WV member.

Hi there! I hunt in Monongahela National Forest on Cheat Mtn. Have family in The Beverly area. Seen and killed some nice mountain bucks there.

I hunt close to you as well. I hunt south of spruce knob

I used to stomp around that area when I was attending WVU.

Welcome. Sounds awesome. are you spot and stalking, still hunting or ambushing in this terrain? Just curious how that might work out east.

99% hunting from a saddle. 1% spot and stalk and still hunting (if we have snow)

That’s a blast from the past. Haven’t been in there in years. Lol

It’s still there just limping along until the guy who runs it decides to pull the plug. Social Media killed the site

Nice. I hunted from a trophy line a few seasons a decade ago and would like to get back into one

Love mine. Wear in my saddle. Single tethrd one stick, carbon tethrd platform, 30 ft of rope and a madrock and I’m hunting pretty much any tree and carrying 6 pounds.
