No time for shooting
I’ve been so busy with projects I haven’t really been shooting very much and when I do I’m terrible. If I shoot everyday I get decent however if I go a couple of weeks my accuracy drops something fierce.
General maintenance isn’t too bad it’s all the extra projects that eats up the time. I finally applied for my Wisconsin drivers license and that ate up half a day and that was just part of it. I had to send for my birth certificate and had to get my application for the birth certificate notarized. At least I didn’t have to take a test.

A well mowed yard is highly overrated. Pow!

Remember, it's not how many guns you have. It's how many bullets you have.

Gene, we've been very busy with some unexpected family issues, so no shooting for us, lately, either.

Re: No time for shooting
My grass was almost that high and I haven’t shot much because of all the other things like digging my RV out of the mud that turned to concrete, leveling a load of gravel down by the road, and dozens of other projects.
It seems my summer is going to be spent preparing for winter. I do get to enjoy the beauty of where I live.

Re: No time for shooting
All kidding aside, prepping for winter starts in the summer here too. There is a long list of things that need to happen to make winter go smoothly. Miss any 1 of them and in January I'll wish I hadn't.

Re: No time for shooting
I need to prepare for plowing the road and have my range setup so I can shoot in the winter. All the time I should be shooting is spent working on the range and berm.RanchRoper wrote: ↑Wed Jun 08, 2022 10:31 pmAll kidding aside, prepping for winter starts in the summer here too.

That, spending all summer getting ready for winter is why my dad moved to Florida in 1952. You have a wonderful home and winter does have it's good points but I think that I will stay where the winters are mild.
