Man what`s wrong with you guy`s?

When I`m not pushing snow or something I`m out cursing and looking for coyotes. Not doing any good, but now that deer season is over I`m not bothered by many other hunters. This is my time of year!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I`ll be at the shoot though, really enjoyed the last one.

Richard,

Same place as last time??? Say the word and I will head up that way to send lead downrange!

Greg

Now where did that little snow monster go? It said it was going to take a dump on my lawn again this week if it got a chance!

We can have it here or we can have it at another range if someone has one that we can use , I don't mind driving a couple hours to shoot guns and shoot the bull .

I'm thinking something like the end-ish of april , should be warming up by then so we don't have to were ear muffs to keep the ears warm .

let me know .

It looks like that is about 190 miles from here to Orrville. That is just a little too far for me.

If we are thinking Lima that is a far distance for me but with a little coordination my wife could visit family in Dayton and we would make a weekend of it. Let me know.

roughly.

It sounds good to me. It was about a 80 minute drive to the range at Delphos from my house. April sounds good too. I am inching to get out and do a little shooting. The only times it has been decent out to shoot, I have had something else to do. When I have the time, it is either 20 degrees or the wind is whipping it up.

I have a Stevens with a brand new action job by SSS and a new Shilen barrel, I have not even pulled the trigger on yet.

Looking forward to another shoot.

Add a bon fire and bbq in the evening, I enjoy shooting but also tossing BS

Graybeard · « **Reply #19 on:** February 14, 2009, 09:45:31 AM »

Now mind you I've not actually tried it so I am NOT speaking from experience here BUT....I think that if you toss that BS into the bonfire it's gonna make the BBQ kinda stinky.

Hairtrigger · « **Reply #20 on:** February 14, 2009, 04:32:44 PM »

It pays to know the wind direction before choosing a seat near the fire.
