Not sure we’re they’re going with this new early and late season in Va.
Rifle season came in this past Saturday for does only and will be in till 09/30 .
Then late season will start in the middle of January and run until March .
These extended seasons will be only for certain counties Page county being the only one west of blue ridge I believe.
This makes for lousy early season hunting temperature wise and for ticks and fleas along with other pestilence.
Also throws a monkey wrench into early archery season.
Which runs through the month of October.
A good many not happy with it .
Then the late season goes into a time frame when they will be pregnant .
Seems absurd that anyone would want to harvest a deer with a youngin in its belly .
Kind of makes you feel like they’re deliberately trying to paint a bad picture of us .
Then several years ago they started a summer season on squirrel, in June!
Who the hell wants to eat squirrels in June , a lot of nasty critters on them too .
WTH are they trying to do ?
