I am new to the area and love to bow hunt (only) whitetails. Is there anyone out there that can give me some in site on Point Washington?
Is it crowded?
Places to avoid?
Place to find hardwoods (start looking spot) ?
Where to get permit?
ETC

Biggest designated hutning land in the area is on Eglin AFB. Part of the deal when Choctawhatchee National Forest was passed to the War Department in the 1940s was that recreational and hunting activities would be maintained, and they get a lot of hunters up there during deer season.

For more info, call the Jackson Guard office at 882-4164 or stop in there on highway 85 in Niceville.

Please be careful with the runners and mountain bikers that use the forest daily throughout the year. We don't scare the deer , they are used to us. But sometimes a hunter scares me when I startle him on my mtn bike as he is hunting on the long leaf pine trail.

Call one of the local natives, ie Earl Barrett, he likes to go hunting. They keep up with the current rules, and know the best places to hunt. Another place is Copelands in Freeport, on Hwy 331. They sell all the equipment, and probably know everything about the subject.

I have hunted it several times. Your on the right track with hardwoods, but I doubt you will find any luck. You will have to locate travel routes out of bedding areas. Google earth is a good way. Also beware of closed areas. Give me a shout I need someone to hunt with. For archery during archery season you don't need a permit outside of you Management area and archery stamp along with you lic.
