Check to see if your county's 4H shooting sports has a muzzleloader program.

You never know. I'm closer to the eastern side of KS, but I've made it to friendship a couple times. Colorado isn't out of the realm of possibilities. Josh

We don't have one yet, but I've been working on it for a few years. The problem is volunteers to coach as it always is. If I can get a couple volunteers to replace me as the archery coach and be reliable, I would do it myself. So far, I've been lucky to get any help just getting the kids cued up with the right equipment before their turn on the archery line. I haven't given up though! Josh

It's fun to pass this stuff on.

Yes it is! I have a little .45 cal Philadelphia deringer that my son keeps hounding me to teach him to shoot. I keep putting him off cause I don't think he's quite strong enough yet. I'll probably have to relent and load it light for him. I think he's gonna be a pistol man like his grampa. I need to dig out my casting equipment as well. Is the pistol you're talking about a cap and ball revolver? Josh

Cool stuff.. My grandson comes to the shoots with us and shoots a 32.. He likes to hold it on the wrong side too ::) He just turned 15 so I'm on the lookout for a 50cal for him.. It matches my other stuff.. Good times
Thanks Leroy
