Clay Thornton Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 I am one of those people that was raised that if you want something, work hard make some money and just buy the darn thing. I have done that most my life if i want something I prioritize it against my needs and then just go get it myself. But my family, God bless them, always insist on getting me something for my birthday. Not just my mother, but my in-laws, and my brother for goodness sake. So here is my question, what is something that I need that I don't know about? Please keep it to under $40ish. It could be any recommendations, cowboy stuff, a great book, some dohicky that you cannot live without. Let's get a list going. If you have a link to an item that is great! Thanks!

Tyrel Cody Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 Probably around $55 after shipping, but a belt pouch from Michigan Rattler is an excellent addition to your rig: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J-BAR #18287 Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 Even if you don’t like baseball, a Rawlings leather wallet is a classy way to carry stuff. They make belts and other gear too. https://www.rawlings.com/specialty/leather-goods/?utm_source=google&utm_medium=paidsearch&utm_campaign=SEM - Brand - Misc.&utm_term=[rawlings wallet]&utm_content=brand&gclsrc=aw.ds&&gclid=Cj0KCQjw9pDpBRCkARIsAOzRziuKi1JgR-7pVxCSg3M42CxjiYP31QGr0nqYG14OMZNMl1jqETGkjSMaAlBkEALw_wcB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alpo Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 I had this problem as a kid. Whenever Daddy wanted something, or needed it, he just went out and bought it. That made Christmas and birthday and Father's Day difficult. Fortunately, he took up golf. Golfers ALWAYS need golf balls. They are a consumable. Your shoes last, your clubs last, your bag lasts. But you either wear out or lose your balls. If I could think of nothing else, I could always get him a dozen TopFlites. You shoot, right? If so, then like a golfer, you have a consumable that you always need. Ammunition. If they can't think of anything else to get you, buy you some ammo. If you don't shoot store-bought, buy you some bullets. If you cast your own bullets, buy you some primers. People make this so difficult. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lorelei Longshot, SASS #44256 Life Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 Loading strips unless you already have 7. If you're shooting 6 stages, load 7 so if you have a reshoot, you already have an extra one. I find having all the loading strips loaded before the match works great for a couple of reasons: 1. You have time to check each bullet for high primers, primers in backwards, split cases, etc. 2. It really saves time when you go back to your cart to empty brass and just pick-up shotgun shells especially when you have a small posse and/or it is HOT (so you can get back in the shade or where the fans are running. Nice pouch for your used brass and shotgun shells at the unloading table. Also can use cheap bandanas found at Hobby Lobby and Michaels if nice pouch is too expensive. Lots of people use Crown Royal bags, but I have a nice suede pouch with an ammo blank on the end so I can stick it in one of my ammo loops on my gunbelt. Will save you time also.
