RE: muzzle loading the hardwood floor
my philosophy is, if what you are doing is not working for you, try something new. when i was sitting all morning on stand and didn't see anything i got up and walked about 20 ft. from where i was and sat down. 5 min. later the big bucks walks through and i shoot it. if i would have stayed where i was, no shot. try it and find out what happens. you can always move back....
