I’ve lived what you are saying believe me. I quit hunting WV for 8 years because I was tired of killing spikes. But to be honest, I see more spikes in Ohio now than in WV. Back in the 80s if you saw a spike in Ohio it was big news. Now it’s very common.W VA 11 point! I thought about it.....
Good luck!Packed up and headed to ky for the early muzzleloader after work tomorrow. Mainly going down to get the cell cams fixed and put on scrapes but we might get lucky.
