Muzzle Loading PA early season starts in 11 days
 

and I can' t wait to start shooting. I have a new inline with scope that I' ve been shooting almost as well as my 06.

I saw 7 deer last Sunday, 6 does, 1 buck too dark to tell how many points when I was spoting.

Good luck with Archery but I had to throw my 2 cents in regarding muzzle loading.

I was all pumped up for it. I got a new in-line for Christmas and everything. Then I had to go and get my wife pregnant.:D Baby' s due in November so this weekend is the last one for me. I' ll be hunting a few Saturdays close to home but I don' t have a doe tag for this county so only with the bow. Last baby, though. Next year there will be more hunting.;)

Scott,

That' s GREAT about the baby. I took off from playing softball and other activities like Scuba diving when my kids were born. Now all I do is work, Landscaping, and shoot targets and deer.

You could go hunting in the late muzzle loading season in January, in you purchased your muzzleloader lisence. Also in the late muzzleloading season in PA, you can shoot a buck or doe with your regular lisence.

Good luck....

Tomster,

Late season muzzleloader is still flintlock muzzleloader only so your inline is for the early doe only season or regular firearms season right?

Rob from PA, yes, you are correct. The late season is for muzzleloading flint only and in-line' s or percussions are excluded from the late season. He could get another Christmas present and get a Hawkins, flint, and use it than. I have both a flint and an in-line and like both rifles.

Thanks for the remindar.

No offense guys...but I' m damn glad I' m not a bowhunter in the state' s with an early muzzle season.

Good luck!

Actually Proline, a lot of areas don' t see much pressure form the smokepole hunters. This is a new season that PA implemented 3 years ago-I think it was 3. The season is gaining popularity though. I hunt both archery and ML.....there is a period of about 2 weeks that the deer seem to be non existant on stand....I find them with my Hawken flinter and bring home the venison that way....for a week.
