    Thanks. I guess I was told wrong.  My daughter was asking if I could time for her at a big match so she wouldn't be so scared.  I thought I couldn't.

    Proud of the family

     we made it down to eot, 30 hrs one way in the truck was not something that I enjoyed. However I'm very proud of the family.  They all managed to do pretty good.

     Mindy took 3rd in lady b western

     Anastasia took 3rd as buckerette

     Lincon 4th as buckaroo

      I took up the rear with 5th in gunfighter.

     

      A little bummed at a disappointing showing by myself. It took my little angel to kick my butt back into reality.   She said I stunk because I didn't practice... My fault .

     I didn't take the time to pick up a cowboy gun in 6 months... A few months before that I wasn't sure I would ever be able to shoot a gun again with my left hand due to a cut tendon in my thumb and a botched surgery.   Just poor excuses.    Sometimes that little girl is too smart for her own good.

     Anyway she made me promise to go back next year and do better, it didn't matter what place I get, but just not leave anything on the table, be prepared and give it my all. she even said she would practice with me, and help ice my thumb when it hurt too bad.

     

      Days like this make me feel like I'm not such a screw up as a dad.

    40 squirrels at the bird feeders

    A Gamo 177 is good squirrel medicine. 

     I've never been a fan of air guns. Not knocking them because they can be quite deadly.  After I graduated up from my red Ryder I never really wanted to go back. I use a cz 457 with cci quiets. At 50 yards I can keep them in one ragged hole off hand.  That's good enough for any squirrels that I can see.

      My uncle has been having with pesky squirrels lately and asked me to help.   He has 40 squirrels outside eating his bird seed and was a little upset.   He's tried all the gimmick feeders and it really didn't work.

     

     So out of the blue he calls and asked if I can come up and thin them a little.

     

       It's been the first time in almost a 6 months I could get out and just relax.  Kids had school.  Didn't have to work . Just sat out and enjoyed the day.. picked off nine of the buggers and had a good supper too

    It depends on which target your shooting at. If shooting left to right shoot the right barrel first the recoil will push you to your next target. Opposite sweep start with the other barrel.

    I think that I'm sold on wet tumbling!

    in SASS Wire

    We used to dry tumble, with 4-6 shooters we were spending a lot of time with dry tumbling.   Then I got a good tip from Jerry miculek, bought an old used concrete mixer.   I added a few more baffles to boost up the agitation and now we do  around three thousand rounds in about half an hour and they look like new .
