Hi all, I am new to the forum as well as muzzleloading and I just wanted to introduce myself. I am excited about getting started and am so lucky enough to have Dixon's Muzzleloading shop and Cabelas within an hour drive of me. I am located in the Lancaster/Chester County area. The guys at Dixon's have been a huge help in getting me started in this the right way. I have been shooting for close to 20 years. I have been in both the military and in law enforcement. I am now in the private sector as a forensic computer examiner and I will exchange my services for indepth insight into muzzleloading and particularly the mountain man era, 1800-1840. I am also a guitar player of 24 years. I play Merle Travis/Chet Atkins style country/bluegrass. Hopefully I will meet some other folks close to me who can help me get started as well. I shoot at New Holland Gun Club in PA. Well a long winded hello, glad to be here. Oh, some of you may want to know what the hell Hota is. My kids are into indians at school and wanted me to come up with an indian name. I chose Hota. How? because I had to go to the hospital a few months back for chest pains, they siad to lay off the cheeseburgers or you will get H.ardening O.f T.he A.rteries! Sounded like a good enough sounding name to me. Happy Holidays
