myles standish state forest hunting?

[Linxerz15]

Can you hunt through out myles standish state forest or are you restricted to the WMA's within the Myles Standish?

you can pretty much hunt anywhere except for the security zone around the prison camp if memory serves...150-feet from paved roads, no setback from dirt roads...
the campground areas with cottages are likely considered "occupied dwellings" so a 500-ft setback should be observed (such as around College Pond)...

Thanks for the info.

Camp Squanto is a no go, not sure about Cachalot.

great point, forgot about the Boy Scout Camp...I also believe that Cachalot is open for hunting during deer season...

Myles Standish last year was overrun with turkey hunters. I definitely saw turkeys there, but so did a lot of other people...
