I guess since they scaled it back to one doe a day for that part of the state the thought must have been that too many does were being killed. Cutting out does with flintlocks might follow that trend I guess.

I just noticed it this year.


Do you want to hear him gobble, or do you want to kill him.

Don't know about up there but they are only allowing one doe if you get a either sex tag at oakamulgee this year.


Would walk over a naked woman to get to a gobblin turkey!

are inline muzzleloaders considered flintlock?

Do they use flint with a lock on the side?

Robert14, they aren't. Flintlocks are more primitive and not near as reliable and do not typically have the same range. I killed my first black powder buck on Wheeler last year with a Lyman Great Plains Hunter Flintlock in 54. caliber. It is really satisfying!!
