Have'nt been to Sheffield yet, but I wanted to hit it this year. Can anyone tell me much about it ? I know it's archery only, but is it a decent place to hunt ? Is there a lot of folks who hunt this place ?
Thanks !
I used to hunt it a lot - Lots of deer and some decent bucks - it's crowded during the archery season, but seems to thin out as gun season rolls around...
Thanks ! Think I'll check it out. I like to walk back in an throw down a blanket for a camp. I know you can camp any where on Paulding, I wonder if it's the same for Sheffield ? That's how you beat the crowds, walk back in there a peice an spend a few days.
Sheffields not that big of a place, you walk back a peice and you will be on a large private club right behind it. I havent hunted their in several years, but used to see some deer and shot a couple of does.
paulding forest is 30000 acrs shefeild is right there with it there is deer every where great wma to get a kill period seen 8 deer this weekend there had 2 bucks come in on me as i was climbing my tree bow was still on the ground but hey the deer are movin good there
The Shefeild portion of paulding forest is 3000 acres. It stays archery only through the season. I have never hunted it but know a few guys that do. Its been about four years ago archers harvested 90 deer on shefeild. That is very impressive.
