Amazed at the amount of guys still spending money at dicks/ F&S
fasteddie replied to rob-c's topic in General Chit Chat
Never saw more than 3 ARs in the Webster Dicks store . They weren't much of a seller there either . They had a big Gun Sale this week ( rifles , shotguns , pistols ) . Enjoy shopping at Beikirchs ! In another note , I wonder where some of the small gun shops are going to get their ammo supply from . Several were being supplied by Beikirchs . -
Talked to my sons and we changed our minds about hunting Saturday . Wind and rain the factor . Going to go to Geneseo and get my elevated blind finished , do some trimming and check the ratchet straps on some ladder stands . I did shoot my Sniper 370 at 30 yards today . Shot at 3 different spots so as not to ruin any bolts . If I could only relax when I shoot the crossbow I would be okay .

About 34 here . Mostly little rug rats accompanied by their parents .

I set up a blind in my back yard so I could check out my Sniper 370 as it has been raining . Shot a few bolts at 20 yards and moved the scope 8 clicks to the right . Still have to check it at 25 and 30 yards . I plan to hunt with my oldest son this Saturday . I took NYSlowhands advice and shortened the cocking rope a couple more inches .

I bet some of the young guys on here have never seen a half dollar . They have been pretty scarce for a few years .

I have a TruGlo single pin sight on two different bows > No problem with either . I have marks on the tape for 20 yards and 30 yards .

I have never been desperate enough to need to shoot a deer outside of legal hours .

If we take a deer to my son's home , we butcher the deer that day . I f I take it home , i hang it and usually cut it up the next day . We put the meat in totes and put them in a fridge . The meat gets processed within the next two days .

Left a hub blind on a 6' high elevated platform that I installed on an old pond bank over 2 years ago . Between the sun and the winter weather , it was trashed . I replaced it with another blind today to use during gun season and possibly with the crossbow . Need to cut more shooting lanes but didn't have time .

Soooo , I went down in the basement to see if I could cock the crossbow . No go . Forgot that I had to have it on "FIRE" and the hooks over not under . Still no go . I took my backup cocking device and shortened the rope and tried again . BINGO ! Shot the X-bow a couple times just to make sure and will have to check it out in the back yard this weekend .

The person who filmed the squirrel caught in the fence said he got it loose after filming . What a guy !

Today's sunrise / sunset in my area is 7:34 am .......... 6:12 pm

I shoot during the LEGAL hours . I have a conscience . If someone else wants to break the law , that's on them . No deer is worth breaking the law . Sunrise and sunset are listed in the news paper as well as Accu weather , etc ..
