Title: Youth Muzzleloader
Post by: STIKNSTRINGBOW on February 08, 2014, 08:19:01 AM: With my daughters both completing their hunter safety training, I am thinking of getting them out next season.
Due to my own commitments, taking them out during Archery season is out, so thinking about ML season.
Who makes an affordable youth sized Washington LEGAL ML for kids ?

Ship it, USPS, UPS, FedEx, you can buy one from Cabela's and they'll ship it to you via UPS, no laws to prevent you from doing the same.

Going to have to share some pictures of my daughter with it, she deserves it, payed attention to the instructor and read the book well enough she scored 100% on the "Hunter Safety" course. Been bugging me for a while to get her into a course, finally got an open seat within driving distance, hunting season will never be the same...
Cannot wait to call her in an elk..
