[QUOTE="JCDEERMAN, post: 5245477, member: 5787"] I've also been fortunate and been very successful with killing deer with a muzzleloader. [U]However[/U], there is always little to no blood trail whatsoever. Less experienced hunters are more likely to "give up" or simply not look for the deer after a short walk and not seeing any blood (when the deer is likely 100 yards or closer and deader than a door knob). Additionally, I shot a deer at 10 yards this year where I was able to surgically place where I wanted to put the bullet. The problem was, I overestimated the power of the bullet and the shoulder took the impact. That was 3 weeks ago and still haven't found that deer. With a rifle, dead in his tracks - no question about it. That changed my whole perspective of muzzleloaders. [/QUOTE]
