Virginia’s Earn-A-Buck program has been around for more than a decade, but this season was my first time hunting under it, and my home county’s first year participating in the program. I’ve hunted enough to know every regulation has a purpose, but I didn’t expect this one to reshape my entire season. Coming home to Virginia to hunt land that I know more intimately than anywhere else in the world should have felt familiar
