Trooper Ozzy Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 I played hockey for 40 years. Got to the point where the body couldn't do what the brain wanted. I needed a new hobby. Went to one match and was all in 4 years ago. Addicted to a little pain so black powder it is. Can't see the targets, shoot slow, reloading is slower, keep finding older and older guns to shoot. I am lucky in that I have the whole range of clubs within 2 hours...fast and close with similar sets each month, to 12 permanent bays with far small targets (love those Texas Stars). Always was a competitor, need to practice more. Maybe when I retire I'll have some time. Don't know what I missed early on, enjoy what I have now.

It's cheaper than professional mental therapy....and funner (funnier?), too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
