David if I'm not mistaken Faquier is also in whats called one of the Urban deer season areas of Virginia for antlerless only .

Generally the early archery season for the Urban areas starts about now and then after the gun season is over the first saturday in January the late Urban antlerless archesy season starts in and runs until March I think .

About 5 years now I've been hunting from mid to late july until late january and let me just say it gets a little old after awhile .

If I night hunted and used red lights and thermal imaging I could probably get more . But what we do seems a little more ethical to me and to be honest sitting at night waiting for deer just doesn't intrest me that much .

The first couple times we went this year we both had thermal imaging and red lights . I wasn't comfortable with it and didn't care for it . And to be honest I never saw anything when I was trying that stuff !

This summer I've found optimum time to be 18:00 to 19:45 . So i try and be where I wanna be by 17:00 .
