I was able to fill my archery bull tag this year with a dandy. I was lucky enough to put an arrow through this mature bull at 37 yards. I got a complete pass through, with a 125 gr tooth of the arrow broadhead. It’s incredible how tough these things are. At first he didn’t know he had been hit. After a few seconds we walked up a hill, and looked around for a few seconds. He got wobbly legs, and piled over face first. He got up and did a 391 yard death run, breaking trees in half the entire way. I’ve been after a bull of this caliber for a long time. Very fun hunt.

I’m running a 6” bow finger out front with an 8” bow finger out back. It’s made a world of difference in acquiring my target faster, and has cut my pin floating in half or more. I’m running a Mathew’s halon 6. Just put a new string on last month. Mathew’s makes a great bow. I have all the confidence I need with this old bow. I’ve killed a deer and a bull with it. Hopefully I get another one this September.

I'm having a few contractors come by to give me a quote on painting my home today and tomorrow, and was wondering what I should expect as far as cost. My house is single story, and roughly 1800 square feet. It's pretty simple, with no extravagant trim work or anything like that. I'm wanting the eves, siding, and trim painted (everything exterior but the doors). I'm expecting a professional job (better than I could do myself). The house has partical board siding I believe. So what do you think I should expect to pay?

SOB, I’m always too late!! Lol 😂

I don’t think they are bringing it back. But there’s this!! I’ll be there this year.

Of course it decided to get breezy today. But it was fun shooting with my kids. The rifle really likes the Sk standard plus. Not my best shooting, but I was also dealing with twin 9 year olds cracking away at their rugger 10 22. I started with a zero. Then I shot top right going left. Middle right going left. Then bottom right going left. I shot two other groups up higher that got some scragglers from my kids. I just wrote those scores below the sk groups. sorry: copy and paste from other site so I didn’t have to type twice.

I’m going out to Oklahoma for the 4th of July, and my old friend is taking me to one. I’d like to get into a 22 match here locally too. If you find one, let me know. I’d love to go.

I’m actually planning on doing a nrl22 match in July with a friend of mine. Need to practice up.

Interesting. I’ve been having to take Benadryl at night to keep my throat from itching. I still can’t eat a1 sauce. Lol -

The stripping of rights, government control, small businesses ruined, and hysteria is absolute garbage. But don’t kid yourself that it isn’t real. Maybe you can tell us how bad rubella is, or how bad mumps is, or some other viral ailments you may or may not have had? -

I had it in January. Mild symptoms at first. Then I developed severe central sleep apnea. Thousands of dollars later, and several sleep studies, I’m starting to get it under control. Went 5 nights without a single second of sleep at my worst, due to insane panic attacks when I’d just start to fall asleep. Pretty darn miserable. Might have been a complete coincidence, but doctors are unsure. At the same time I got the COVID and the apnea, I had multiple blood draws which went crazy for no apparent reason. Alt numbers crazy high like liver failure, white blood count numbers almost at zero, and multiple other weird things. All have since returned to perfect, and again no explanation from doctors. It’s been a wild ride. I’m back to feeling 60%, and I’m finally getting regular sleep. -
