Early muzzleloader opened today in MD. Anyone have any luck yet? I didn't see squat this morning. Rain coming in tonight, so maybe this evening will be more eventful.

I saw 7 or 8, all does and maybe a few of them buttons. It was fun to get out there, but I'm tired! BTW, I didn't want to shoot a doe, but was tempted toshoot the one blowing at me.

I had an uneventful opening evening on Thursday. First, I forgot my orange hat. Second, when I threw the BP over the shoulder, the top strap of my sling came undone.... which caused third, my rifle to fall backwards and land, barrel first, into a very clay type surface. After a few minutes of trying to unclug the barrel, I managed to push the piece of clay futher into the barrel.[:@] So with that, I put the rifle back in its case and decided to just sit on my stand to see if anything moved. NEedless to say, I jumped one or two does on my way to my stand.

So yea, that was my Thursday evening story.

I will be out there tomorrow morning in hopes that I see something in the early hours. Good luck!
