Muzzleloader Hunting

[jimynick]

Nice looking deer and nice shot. There's just something about a .50

 Fired my uncles old .50 flint no kick locks of smoke.

Thats a nice buck you have there.  I havent been out in several years as its nearly impossible to find a good spot in MD unless you want to buy rights from a farmer or go on public land( which I wont) I even have a nice 50 cal muzzleloader that I have never even fired and owned it for several years.  May have a line on a small farm on MD's eastern shore but,   just have to wait and see if it pans out.  Good luck to all the hunters and dont forget the Hunters for the hungry programs if there are any in your areas.

There are some big deer up on the Eastern Shore. I have some friends that hunt up there. Lots of farm land to eat from! I used to hunt public land here in Virginia, but you never know who is out there with you or whether they have any hunter safety training, are drunk or just stupid.  I got tired of people walking up on my position and the other stuff I just mentioned. I have to drive a good hour or more to get out of the city to hunt. It's join a hunt club or have a friend with land. I went a good 10 years without hunting because of that but finally bit the bullet and joined a very nice well organized (and safety conscience) hunt club that hunts over 3,000 acres. It cost a little bit of money, but just like the car hobby, you got to pay to play!  Doug, I hope you can find somewhere to hunt with that muzzleloader, it's a lot of fun!!
