I'll have mine, that's for sure. Depending on weather conditions, we could think about rifles on Day 1 and come back for shotgun on Day 2 (or something like that).

Don't know about Cofisher, but I'll be touching base with him this week!

PT7 has volunteered to be operate the clay-thrower button (or whatever it's called!), so we'll have assistance and a cheering section!

I'm gonna guess that we can't get into much trouble in KC in August, when the places we'll spend most of our time are either shooting ranges or BBQ joints.
Besides, we're old.

Getting ready for the best of my summer. A 10 day trip to Colorado. Friends, family and fishing. Followed by a concert at Red Rocks with Joe Bonomassa! Then off to meet with good friends I've never met in KC Missouri. Gonna shoot, eat and tell lies. Life is good.

Looks like you've already rolled out the pink and orange "carpet" for your KC arrival :!: :lol: :!:
Have a great time on your CO trip.

Now how would anyone know you are old. Not only do you forget to add Henrys to the How Many thread hint hint but to this date you still havent added a picture in that thread either.
Don't let the old man in

Old AND forgetful. We'll get some pics from the KC gathering.

Then my oldness will be confirmed!

You just can't tell by looking that I'm forgetful!

Trying to pack everything I need for two weeks of fishing and shooting...what a pain. I know many of you relate. Maybe I need a bigger truck. Sigh.

Got the fishing covered, I hope. Not taking boat or kayak. Too much hassle. I do have my belly boat. May get out on some mountain lake. Kiss.

Is 300 rounds enough? Is 400 too many? Lol, hope get that.

Dreaming of good fishing and shooting with family and friends.

I'll keep y'all posted.

You're right, Jim. I'll be doing the same mulling about how much ammo to bring. I usually keep to a conservative amount, and have "run out" at times before I was done shooting. :cry: So nowadays I still do the conservative amount first, then add 50 rounds more. I don't cut into the 50 unless absolutely must do it!

Hope the fishing is great....enjoy.
