Yah, we only have a one week ML season, but we are allowed to used ML's during rifle season which is from 10/20-1/1/08 or 1/15/08 depending on what zone you are in. I use my ML's through the regular gun season. We also designated an archery only area on our hunting club this year. I may be hunting it a little this year. Kind of dissapointing not seeing that cloud of smoke!!!
