Old Mossy Horns
The third proposed new season is probably the most significant. It creates a primitive weapons season known as a “Mountaineer Heritage Season” in which hunters could hunt either sex deer or bear statewide with traditional flintlock or percussion cap muzzleloaders or recurve or long bows. Compound bows, crossbows, or in-line or scoped muzzleloaders would not be allowed during this season. The proposal would be limited to the recurve or long bows in the four archery only counties in southern West Virginia. The proposed season date is January 10-13.
“We’ve heard a lot of folks in years past wanting a primitive weapons type muzzleloader season,” Foster said. “This is in response to that and we’re going to pull archery into that as well.”
