I don't hunt with a muzzleloader, but I have been out with my bow. I've seen more deer this year than in the last two years combined. It looks like it's shaping up to be a good year.
It's nice to see a post from someone else in NH. Good luck!!<font face='Tahoma'></font id='Tahoma'>

I hunt with my 3 sons and a close friend. We have been seeing deer at about the same pace as last year. My buddy got his deer last month with a bow and my son got his deer with his Muzzleloader Mon afternoon in the same general areas. I did see a nice buck Sat and three does Sun and they were the first deer I have seen this season. The weather could have been better during the first part of the Muzzleloader season, but the biggest factor that I see is the amount of foliage. It seem that the trees just don't want to drop their leaves. We have even had to move some of our treestands to other locations.
