Here is a buck my son shot with a muzzleloader yesterday in Nevada. It's not what you'd call a monster muley but to me it's still HUGE. It was on one of the youth tags where the kids can hunt any open season in their unit with the legal weapon for that season. Yesterday was the last day of muzzleloader season. General season opens next weekend but we figured there would be less pressure during muzz season and it might work out better given our limitations. Anyway, we are pretty jazzed about it. It's his third deer but first with a muzz. Shot him at close to 100 yards with my inline 50 cal. Hit a little low first shot and we had to follow up and get close to him again to put in a finishing neck shot. This is a tough area and without using a quad we'd never have been able to get him to the deer. Sometimes lady luck smiles on us all.
