Sweet! Anything else?

Sweet!  GF is gonna love that Xmas present!  Still seems ridiculous not to just extend it thru end of dec .  So muzzleloader ends Dec 22 and reopens the 26.  That part makes no sense to me but more hunting days I am for. 

 Now hopefully they get the rest of the whitetail plan done that would be great.

Just have to hope for time off and good weather.

Remember when people were saying snowmobilers would halt this? Remember when people were super confident it would be a lift and shift and not an addition to?

I like it, I don’t know if it’s the reason but I know for me I would be hunting instead of doing Christmas stuff with the family, this saves me a couple arguments.

I might just have to get into the muzzle loader game so I can take my daughters out over Xmas break!

Just another reason I’m glad I’m getting back into M/L

I’m not going to lie I’m pretty excited about this. Looks like we will start a new new year tradition!

[BowmanMike]

Excellent news. That will be a great chance to top off the freezer if it needs it. Deer will be back to normal by then for sure. They do act pretty normal by the time muzzleloader season is over anyway.

A CVA Wolf or Traditions Buckstalker is pretty cheap and shoot well. I'm guessing you can be ready to go all in (supplies) for around $300, maybe $400 tops if you add a usable scope.

I just wish it was going to be flintlock only!

Now this only applies if you still have any tags left? Sometimes I do, sometimes I don't. 

Also, depends on the weather for me. I used to go in any weather conditions. But single digit temps, with a below zero wind chill, are not fun for me anymore. But there are times during this period, where we'd be out small game hunting during some pretty nice weather! So any added time to hunt deer is good time! I'm certain that at some point we will take advantage!

Guess I better dust off the old TC Thunderhawk Shadow!!!!

Only problem I’m having now is getting 209 primers besides that I’m ready to go.

Cool! Some years, I could use a few extra days to put meat in the freezer!

I know a place that has 209M which is perfect for most MZ.

The break between seems odd. why not just through 12/31 like 3S and 1C does? It was cool to bow hunt after xmas while the rest of the state coulnd't hunt. now i don't feel as cool anymore

It's a bit north of you about 90 minutes or so, but they have them, don't advertise, and probably worth the drive because you can get them. Hard to find right now. If you're interested I'll send you the info.

Cause DEC. Cause NY.

Explanation complete.

Now they will pass the Xbow into archery and the extended hours and bingo. Recipes for success.
