Welcome to my site!

Hello everyone. I hope you will learn a few things browsing through the pages on my site. I am creating this site with the intention of making it a teaching/learning site geared towards the beginners who often don't know where to turn to for advice.

First off I'd like to tell you a little about myself and why I've decided to take this project on. I was introduced to hunting and shooting in 1988 when I married my husband Doug. I learned quickly that shooting and hunting meant a great deal to him and that if I wanted to see much of him when fall and winter rolled around I would have to participate. The first 2 yrs. I hunted with a centerfire rifle. In 1990 we began a new adventure with (his re-introduction to) muzzleloaders. This was fun. More fun than the very loud, ear piercing booms of the centerfires. What's more it was alot less expensive to shoot. In 1992 our next adventure started when hubby decided it was time to try a flintlock. We have been shooting primarily muzzleloaders for the past 5 yrs.



In the pages that follow I will give information that will help a new person to the sport of muzzleloading to get started in our sport as well as offer other links of interest. I do hope that you will browse through the pages and offer feedback on things you'd like to see added to the site.



New pages will be added as I can. If there is something you would like to see but hasn't yet been added, drop me an email and ask. I'm more than happy to get more ideas for future pages.



Some folks have asked that I add a guestbook. If you would like to view and sign it, go to the links page and it's the first link on the page.



Please check back as I'm adding pages as I can. If there is something you would like to see feel free to email me and let me know. I'd like to include as much information as I can.
