The family home economy and needs of the family will normally dictate how often we can shoot. That's just life. Some get to shoot more then others. I guess they are lucky. But your season is fast approaching. Ours is in September (Bow season and some small game starts in October). So things are going to pick up in these rooms, and you are going to be shooting more. Its nice to hear from you.

This is so true. I spent 26 yrs in the AF and moved all over the world. It was too expessive for me to hunt or shoot. I selected fishing to help me keep my head on straight. It was very inexpessive to do. I didn't get back into hunting and shooting till '92 after I retired from the AF.

Life is good now. I still put the family first, got grand babies to enjoy.

Ya, I get Honey Do lists as well. I usually get 3 days off. One day is for the family, one day is just for me and my son and one day is for me. I may do a little twilight shooting. Our deer season starts at the end of September so I better get my eyes used to low light level conditions.
