RECORD KILL EXPECTED FOR DEER SEASON |
(11/17/2009) |
West Virginia officials are predicting a good deer hunting season for 2009. Others are predicting a record kill. Tens of thousands of hunters will take to the WV woods in search of a trophy buck or just some meat to fill the family freezer. Calhoun appears to have a record deer population. The bucks-only firearm season, which lasts two weeks, begins Thanksgiving week. Deer season is also a major economic boost to the state. DNR Director Frank Jezioro estimates that deer hunting brings in about $250 million every year. |
