For most who don't know it,you may hunt with a bow all during the regular season too.So right now,you may bowhunt from Oct.15-Dec.19.That seems like quite a bit of time if that is your way of thinking about muzzleloader hunting.I have got a modern inline.I use it during regular season because I feel it is the best weapon available to hunt with.Bowhunters shouldn't complain about the season.I hunt both archery and muzzleloader.I would much rather have a longer season with the better weapon to get a deer with.Even modern inlines have alot of factors that could cause a shot to go wrong.With a muzzleloader you have 1 shot.If any little thing goes wrong,that is your chance.Let's let somebody else have some time in the woods too.Bowhunting license costs $16 and you get over a month to hunt with no other deer hunters in the woods.A muzzleloader license costs$16,only get 1 week in the woods,and you have other deer hunters out in the woods.Doesn't seem fair to me.
