Not to get into a pissin' match here, but I'm sorry to differ with you guys. How many actual people Muzzleloader hunt compared to shotgun hunt anyway? A "far less" amount than shotgun hunters!! One week in the middle of October won't do a thing to the deer movement patterns in November's rut!!! YES, by golly I actually am a Bowhunter!! And guess what, if "you" are a bowhunter, you know that deer are creature's of Habit, meaning that they will use the same areas year round as they always do, unless there is a major change to the landscape or intense pressure, which I firmly feel won't be a issue at all. Again, I don't see the problems with this. Also remember, these are only proposal's, and have to voted on before actually being employed!! So before you start panicing, think about it.
Excellent response, maytom.
Although I do not agree with your opinion, I commend you on your ability to not stoop to Steve and J-bow's level. I have more respect for people that act right, even if I disagree with them.
