I recently purchased a TC Hawken, 54 cal. and hope to become proficient enough to deer hunt with it this fall. I'll be spending some time at the range, but this new challenge sounds fun. Any tips anybody wants to offer will be appreciated.

Eastern Oklahoma? I live near Lake Eufaula and Longtown. I am a long time Traditional Black Powder shooter.
I'm glad there is another coming up in Oklahoma. Read [especially this forum] and shoot as often as you are able. Polecat

Welcome, I live in Antlers.
I live just north of Tulsa, but sometimes hunt around Lake Eufuala. I have hunted all my life, but started bow hunting a few years ago to make it a little more challenging. Then decided to add traditional black powder to the mix just because it sounds fun and more challenging too. A couple of hunting buddies hunt with inlines and didn't understand why I wanted to go traditional. I wanted to do it like they did in the 1800s. I am looking forward to it.
I've been muzzleloader hunting over at Stringtown wildlife management area.
Give me a shout if you make it down this way.

Welcome!
I might just do that. I enjoy hunting new areas and I haven't been there yet.

Howdy from an hour south of Lawton, on the Texas side of the Red.
Welcome from Norman, OK. Been shooting smokepoles 46 years here in Oklahoma and many other states in competition and hunting. Help start a few clubs in Oklahoma and support many others in the surrounding states. Had a hunting camp around Smithville and Big Cedar in the 70's & 80's where we would set up a few days before Blackpowder season and stay until the last day. Hunted around Muse, and up around Cookson and Keys near Tenkiller. There used to be a good club around Tulsa, Osage Territory Muzzleloading club and Tater Hill Club around Broken Arrow. I think they still shoot around the Zinc Range somewhere. There is a big club at Wichita Falls, TX that Eterry belongs to. Maybe he call tell you about some in TX.
There is a big shoot every fall and spring at Berryville, AR. Glad you joined the group. Lots of hunting areas in Oklahoma on public land if you do your homework.
Again, welcome to the forum and to Muzzleloading. The smell of blackpowder is addicting.
