Muzzleloader Success!

Recommended Posts

This year was my first hunting with a muzzle loader. After getting drawn in New Mexico for mule deer I purchased a used Thompson Center Omega and began to shoot. Finally settled in on Blackhorn 209, Thompson Center Sabots and Remington Primers I felt pretty good shooting out to 200 yds.

 

A buddy and I hunted in New Mexico and both were fortunate to take a couple of nice mule deer. I had missed a few times but finally connected on the last evening of my hunt. Felling pretty good I put in for HAM hunt in AZ.

 

Come Jan 1, I found a herd about 30 minutes after sun up...... but with no tag in my pocket, I had to sit and watch. I probably found 5 more herds in January and just knew I was not going to find a herd during the HAM hunt.

 

I got back into town late last night and with only one day to hunt, I went out.

 

Deciding to go where I was on Jan 1, I was fortunate to find the herd no further than 500 yds from where I had seen them in Jan and it was on. Got within 50yds and put the hammer down on this gal. Pretty fun thanks for reading.
