So, I'm in NoVA for the winter while I'm in training for work and my nine year old wants me to take him hunting. We are not from the area and don't have any friends with land, so I want to explore the possibility of taking him out to one of the Wildlife Management Areas (WMAs) to shoot some squirrel.

I don't want to go to the trouble and expense involved with trying to go on a deer hunt, but thought that a one day squirrel hunt would be just what was called for so that my son would get a taste.

Anyone have any advice? We are in Falls Church, so I am looking at the Thompson and Merrimac WMAs.

Thanks in advance.

Gary
