Time to get serious!

Well as you guys know, last year I was hitting the woods hard with my bow because I was about to ship to bootcamp. Well, dad had me busy huntin ducks during bow season this year. Well this weekend is the opening weekend for the black powders. So dad is serious about hunting deer now. We will be hunting all day Saturday and Sunday. Question I have for yall is do I take the axiom or the black powder?

I would say it depends a lot on where you hunt. I use the muzzleloader during the MZ & gun seasons even though the crossbow is legal.

Reason - I don't want to blood trail the deer to where another hunter has claimed it, I want to drop it in it's tracks!

Your asking that on a excalibur crossbow forum???

[rayman]

I actually have more confidence in my Excal that I do in my black powder rifle. Not a pain in the arse to clean either.

[vixenmaster]

Which one do you really want to kill yer tick toter with ?

[Nighthunter]

If it were my choice, I'd opt for the crossbow. It's more of a challenge, it's more fun, and you don't have to clean it with solvent after the shot... PS: GOD bless you for serving our Country...

If i wanted some meat and needed to stock the frezer i would take the black powder,If i just wanted to hunt and it didnt matter i would take the crossbow,but it depends on the place your hunting.Good luck what ever you take and enjoy every minute of it
