I first started hunting Sika Deer on Chincoteague NWR in Virginia and have since expenaded to Dorchester County MAryland and the Blackwater NWR about 1996 or 1997 !

I drive 3 1/2 hours from my home in central Virginia to hunt these little guys in Maryland and about the same distance to hunt them on Chincoteague when I get drawn for a permit !

Matter of fact this is the first year inawhile I am able to hunt bothe the Blackwater NWR and got drawn to hunt the Chincoteague NWR in the same hunting year !

So possibly I can take Sika Deer in both states for the first time ever !

Better yet maybe I can get a 6 point Sika Stag on the Blackwater this year and when I go to Chincoteague later get a 6 down there as well !
