Normally right now we'd have 2 to 18 inches of snow on the ground so I'd shoot at the shop only.

But with the kooky weather this year I've been able to practice almost every other night off of my deck.

From wall to wall in my basement is about a 20 yard shot. I just lock the basement door to keep the wife and kids upstairs for safety. If it's nice I'll shoot outside.

I'll take advantage of nice days and shoot outside. Otherwise I don't shoot much.
