How is the hunting in Virginia?

[freebird13]

Greetings from the snowy foothills of North east Ohio brother and sister hunters! Im a die hard whitetail hunter and have recentley been offered a job in the Lynchburg area of your beautiful state. But the hunting conditions will dictate my decision, so I was hoping to get some feedback from anyone that hunts this part of the wonderful Virginia woods. Thanks folks i appreciate any and all comments

We have a healthy herd of deer, with long seasons and bag limits. Turkeys too. If you are seroius about deer hunting.I think you will like what you find. Naturally, we have some good public hunting available but your best bet would be private lands,when and if you move and meet locals.

Thank you, i've heard mixed things on virginia deer but like all states much of it is dependent on the hunter more than the land he's hunting. Some of my friends who have hunted public land in Virginia tell me it is well managed and the heards are healthy. Am I correct that the lynchburg are is mountanous?
