Members of the state Natural Resources Commission have approved a slate of 12 limited-participation deer hunts on seven West Virginia parks. The hunts will be held in late October and early November at Beech Fork, Blennerhassett, Canaan Valley, Cacapon, North Bend, Stonewall and Twin Falls state parks. Deer killed during the hunts will not count against huntersâ season bag limits. Participants will be chosen by lottery, and each must pay a $15 non-refundable fee to be included in the drawing. The deadline for application is Aug. 30. Drawings will be held on Aug. 31, and successful applicants will be notified between Sept. 6 and Sept. 17. Hunters may apply via the Division of Natural Resources’ online license outlet, www.wvhunt.com.
