SOUTH CHARLESTON, W.Va. – West Virginia resident and nonresident archery deer hunters have until Oct. 15, 2010, to purchase their additional deer bow hunting license(s), according to Curtis I.

The statewide deer archery season opens on Oct. 16, 2010, and the additional bow hunting licenses (Class RB and RRB licenses) must be purchased prior to this opening date.
Hunters may purchase two RB licenses (resident additional deer bow hunting) or two RRB licenses (nonresident additional deer bow hunting) for use during the upcoming traditional archery season.
“Dedicated archery hunters can pursue up to three deer in West Virginia during the 11-week bow season, which runs from Oct. 16 through Dec. 31,” said Taylor.
For complete information, hunters should consult the 2010-2011 West Virginia Hunting and Trapping Regulations Summary available at any DNR office, license agents, or by visiting the DNR Website at www.wvdnr.gov.
