Howdy Folks, I'm Barn and I reside in Fort Worth, TEXAS. I'm nearing retirement and am looking forward to receiving my first muzzleloader to use deer & elk hunting. I have zero experience with a smoke pole and all the stuff that goes along with it, as I've been an archery only hunter for years. I'll be asking lots of questions from yall, and feel the only stupid question is the question I don't know the answer to and refuse to ask. Thanks in advance and I do appreciate you.
