| Just to make myself clear. Its not that I think muzzle loaders are bad. I'm just against giving them their own special season at a more preferable time of the year. Or, if you are going to do that, make the season only for "primative" firearms.
I have friends that make their own long bows, use wood arrows they make, and have to get within about 15 yards before they can shoot. If the average hunter tried this set up, I'd have a moral problem with it. The average hunter couldn't even come close to a clean hunt with this, but it doesn't make the set up immoral.
Much the same with high tech "primative" firearms.
And yeah, if I was a deer hunter, I'd totally have a nice muzzle loader and hunt that season. |
