RE: MD Early Muzzleloader Season
Congrats lefty and rick.
Well I got me a doe today.
Got set up on the ground 1 hour before sunrise, got walked in on by another hunter hunting the adjoining propertyas the sun was coming up. He posted up about 40 yards from me, so I decided to move mylocation. Thank you to that hunter because that move put me onto 4 does, one of which I put a tag on (first with my ML). Now the wife can stop buying over priced meat at the store.
Good luck to the rest of you Maryland men and women. Congrats to everyone else that has gotten a deer or gets a deer.

I hunted in St. Mary's Co. Opening morning I passed on a 4pt and two dogs.[:@] In the evening, I shot a 7pt that I was going to pass on until I saw how big his body was. I shot right through a branch that was about 8ft away and really thought that there was no way that bullet was going to hit that deer after going through the branch, but it managed to stay on coarse for the most part. I ended up having to follow the blood trail and heard him about 30 yds away in the dark trying to get up. I managed to hold the light against the stock and put a finishing round in him. Live and learn about scope shooting and branches up close! Other than that, I had to let another buck pass yesterday and a deer at dark that I couldn't identify as buck or doe. I went back the next morning to get my stand and took a pic of the branch while I was at it. Pics below.
