Ohio Muzzleloader Season Starts-1/2/14-1/5/14

Since Muzzleloader season starts a half hour before sunrise,ends a half hour after sunset,and we’ve got an hour and 15 minute drive each way…posting will be light until Mon 1/5/14.
I may have time to do a couple posts in the evenings,or if I get another deer,I’m done for the year,as our freezer is filled to max capacity.
If my brother doesn’t get a deer,and I do,I’ll give him the venison from the one I get,if he does get one-I may just donate the doe I’m gonna shoot tomorrow or Sat. Ohio has a bunch of programs where you can donate venison,doesn’t cost you anything,you just have to drop the deer off at a processor.
We usually donate at least one deer to one of the programs,all the venison goes to help those who can’t buy groceries for whatever reason.
Donating venison also helps people have a better perception of hunters-every little bit helps because the anti-hunters never stop,now we have HSUS funding campaigns to get anti-hunting shit on the ballot. These people spend billions trying to get all hunting banned. Wayne Pacelle-prez of HSUS stated in public that his goals are to ban all hunting,and require everyone to become vegan.
HSUS gets billions in donations by scamming clueless people. They air ads on TV that make it appear that HSUS operates animal shelters-the fact is HSUS does not operate a single shelter-not one.
They just show pictures of mistreated and/or injured,starving pets-and poof-the $$$ rolls in.
After collecting the billions,they then try to get anti-hunting crap on the ballot with lies,half-truths and obfuscation-and the low info voters gladly vote for the garbage. Pacelle stated they are starting in Ca,then moving on to the rest of the states.
They never stop,they sneak shit into petitions,get the issues on the ballot-then bam-we can’t hunt mountain lions or bears with dogs,they’re trying to get hunting fox,raccoons and rabbits with dogs.
Once they get one thing banned-they just keep going,taking hunting rights away a little at a time.
What these clueless dolts do not comprehend is that the fewer hunting licenses and tags sold-the less money for wildlife conservation. Hunters fund over 90% of all wildlife conservation efforts in the USA. paid for every wildlife refuge in the refuge system,by buying duck stamps, both state and fed.
Remember this as you’re sitting in a treestand or a blind as this hunting season winds down.
Think about joining or donating to Ducks Unlimited,Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation,National Wild Turkey Federation,Ruffed Grouse Society,Pheasants Forever-there’s a bunch more,along with lots of local and state groups/orgs.
Anyone who likes to hunt,and wants to pass the tradition on to their kids should be donating $$ or labor to one of these groups/orgs-it helps balance out the horsepucky spread by HSUS,PETA,Center for Biological Diversity,World Wildlife Fund,Wild Earth Guardians,Defender of Wildlife,and on and on and on.
Good luck to anyone hunting the Ohio muzzleloader season !
