Hi everyone, Im a bow hunter from Chambersburg, PA. I will be attending Muskingum University in Ohio this fall, which is located in a small town called New Concord. I was pleased to hear that Muskingum County is one of the best counties to hunt deer in Ohio. I was wondering if any one knew of any good areas to hunt that is relatively close to my campus?
Great to have you join the forum!! BowhuntingOhio is about as good as it gets!!
I was a Muskie. It's great area. Just go knock on doors, someone will give you permission. And even if not, you're not far from good public ground.
You might consider the Tri-valley Wildlife area in Muskingum County... probably only about 30 minutes from New Concord. The for-profit leasing has really picked up in Muskingum County the past few years.. so it is becoming difficult to find private hunting land without paying for it. The best solution... a local farm gal at the college who's family owns some prime whitetail acreage nearby. You might just have access to a nice deer population and a home cooked meal. Welcome to Muskingum County!
