Hopefully they give us some good musket permits, and/or decent general units. 
Talking about things that need to go away, the party system for LE units is another one. mtmuley

I’ll not disagree. 7% of the tags to one family seems crazy. I just figured we were donating bonus point $$$ ‘til the day we died.

Interesting to read this thread a few years later.
With the 2023 muzzleloader season now having come to a close, my internet observations of it are that it was an additional week for people to go out and shoot 2 point mule deer bucks and does - at least that's what social media makes it seem like.
A couple weeks ago on the opening weekend of the muzzy season, after 12 weeks of archery and general rifle season, once again a string of trucks filled with orange were headed up my road for the public land beyond
Take, take, take, more, more, more.

Fixed it for you
I would be curious to know how many people are poor enough hunters that they can't kill a 2-point deer in general rifle season but are good enough hunters to kill a 2-point deer with a muzzleloader.
I hunted 8 days during muzzleloader season and didn't take anything. I also hunted 16 days of general season where I didn't take anything, partly because I wanted to hunt with the muzzleloader. I will likely do the same again next year. I would love to see the last week of rifle replaced with muzzy. I would absolutely hate to see muzzy season moved to the end of archery when bulls are still rutting.
