heading out today for ohio's early muzzleloading season
 

6 am right now & heading south to saltfork s.p. for 1 of 3 stateparks that allows early muzzleloading season. either sex is allowed for the week & 1 deer is permitted. which is abunch of bs because ohio claims that they have a over population of deer & allow you up to 3 deer in certain zones the rest of the year & for early muzzy season they usally harvest about 400 deer @ 3 stateparks.

Well good luck!

well just got back for ohio's early muzzy season & i missed a big 10 pointer on monday @ 7:50 am (which seems to be my magical hour ) actually i got busted by him ; never seen him coming in thick area.
on tuesday i got robbed; this couple of yahoo's shoot @ a nice 8pt & hit it in the front leg & it takes off like bat out of #ell & runs past 3 other guys who miss completely & runs into my area & i shoot & knock it down& basically kill it just waiting for it to expire & these 3 yahoo"s come & claim the deer they hit only in the front leg & never put a fatal shot in it & we get into a big agrument & no body around with me who is hunting with me & 3 guys differltly look like something out of deliverance & tell me it"s there deer because they hit it first & it run from them( total distance from them to me was 1/4 mile) long story short; i did"nt have a chance in h@ll getting out alive if it went to blows 1 had a shotgun which was illegal but claims he was hunting turkey in a deer only spot. so i told them they must need the deer more than i do. so take it you bunch of slobs. called the game warden later & said basically he could"nt do anything about it ,since they were gone. but he also assured me a unwritten rule it" s the 1st fatal shot who gets the deer. but being on public land he heres alot of that going on espically with this kind of slob group ; basically stealing deer from other hunters. next time i will be better prepared.

Wow, what a story! I think you made the right decision, but I would have made them tag it and call it in so they burn there deer tag. At least you went hunting and shot a deer! That beats nothing.
