Since the Virginia board seems kinda dead, I decided to post this here. Does anyone on here live in this area of the state? I would like to find some buddies to go hunting with. If they don't mind having a "newbie" tagging along. Send me a message if your interested.

I live in buchanan county va, If your ever in this area give me a holler, would be happy to show you around to a few places here, always got a place or two ready to go hunting.

Hey Clemsonfan,
We have property in Bristol Va, and am somewhat a newbie myself. I don't live there, but am 1-5 hours away in NC.
I do come up about once a week, occasional weekends, and will be up there a lot come deer season. Send me a PM, and we can possibly discuss some places to MD.

I am in Abingdon, Va. I have been hunting on and off for a couple of years but still consider myself a rookie. I am a retired mining engineer. Would like to hunt with some one in the area. ctb7

Ctb I am just returning to the the hobby after some 20 odd years. I grew up in Saltville and did some relic hunting there with a few finds. Im now in Bristol and have been trying to research places to MD here and surrounding areas. Not much luck yet but would enjoy MDing with others in our area.

I'm 18 and I'm from Haysi Va. But live in Bristol Va. And I also want to know of some places to Metal Detect and find old relics. Maybe also find some people to go with.

I am in Kingsport, TN (Sullivan County), but work in Lebanon, VA and Richlands, VA. Would like to hunt some places here. I am always spotting promising sites but do not know the property owners. Would love to get together with anyone in Upper East TN or SW VA to hunt. I'm a newbie. -james

I live in Big Stone Gap. I'm brand new to this hobby too, and being in school full time commuting to Milligan College every day doesn't leave me much time but I'd like to hear of any good places as well.
