Default Yee-Ha! I Now Have Balls

The FedEx truck just dropped off my order from Graf & Son. Really fast service. I placed the order about 10 p.m. Monday.

So the weekend session with the Pedersoli .32 will include both patched balls and my paper wrapped semi-wadcutters. What more could a guy ask for? (Well, maybe temperature below 90*.)

I've been amazed at how fast orders have come in this year...Perhaps companies have gotten rid of the dead wood...

Have fun with your balls...

We're starting to get a break down here with a projected high of 86* Saturday and Sunday. Sure beats 93.

We had 31šs the other night. We need a good hard frost so it will get the potatoes frosted and toughen the skins.

I am glad to hear the truck came in for you. Now you can go to the woods and play with er shoot your... never mind, keep your eye on the bulls eye and breath control. That little .32 should be a lot of fun.
