Check out these resources to prepare for muzzleloader season:

If you haven't filled your deer tag(s) yet, *don't give up!* 

Deer hunting can be a test of patience, but you cannot harvest a deer if you don't try or put the time in. Remember to control your scent, it is very hard to fool a deer's nose, and enjoy the beauty of being in Maine's woods.

The firearms season ends November 30th, and muzzleloader season will begin December 2nd. To participate, you need to purchase a muzzleloader permit [ [link removed] ] in addition to your big game hunting license.
