Sorry, but I gotta respectfully raise the flag on that one. Doing away with inlines would be suicide to hunting in the state

I'd think the same thing. I for one would probably not pay for a muzzleloader stamp if that happened. If they added a season I'd do it but not if inlines were taken away. I love my smoke pole.

I would support that, Not to take away from the inline group but a traditional season would be nice to see.

I would not like it. My eyes are not what they use to be, me like the scope. Otherwise I would have to point and shoot I don't mind the powder part i use that on one inline now. I also don't mind the load i use a power belt not a sabot. That i believe meet the dimension requirement.

So there would be no loss for anyone and a net gain in the number of days during the season.
Yep a primitive weapons season would be great. I agree.

There is no reason they couldn't divide it for traditional first, then in-lines.
So many people I run into are toting the latest, greatest modern in-lines just to get a couple days in before GG people.
They would not even consider using a traditional bp rifle.

I am not sure why pistils would not be allowed thou.

Well it doesn't say in lines are not allowed. I have percussion cap in line. The ignition is exposed.
