Getting ready for the Traditional Flintlock (PA) Deer Season.

[skeet]

Although I hope you really enjoy your season ...especially not having to wear the orange etc...I really don't see a necessity for a flinter only season. Don't see the big difference between all the muzzleloaders myself. Gotta load 'em all from the front. But I think maybe they should not allow scopes in a primitive hunt. Keeps people from shooting the long distances that they think they can. I shot almost all my muzzleloader deer with a T-C Hawken 50 with 100gr FFFg and a roundball. Kept the shooting under 80-90 yds and they killed very effectively. People don't have the traditionalist feelings that they used to have. They see the muzzy season as another hunting opportunity(a really good thing). I do not hold that against them though. And if the ultra traditionalist wants to hunt as you do....I don't hold that against him either.

I hope ya get ol' BIG BUCK this season, Adam! Keep yer powder dry! Hope ya have some tracking snow too. That is one of the fun things in the late deer seasons. Tracking snow!
