Default How lucky are you?

Does anyone else have a job that allows you the time to practice while at work?

I have to brag at the fact that I am able to practice every day of the week whether at home or work. Makes those last minute adjustments and honing your skills before the season very nice.

I'm not lucky enough to shoot at work but I'm lucky enough to spend 8 hours a day chatting about bow hunting

We have a range setup at our shop and it is pretty nice. Only 20 yards, but we have a deer target, broadhead target, bag target and a paper tuner. We used to have a nice 40 yard range in the receiving dock, but someone shot the forklift and that was that.

I'm not lucky enough to be able to practice while at work. However I am lucky enough to have an employer that lets me make my own schedule. It allows me to not have to use my vacation days for hunting.

So now with DavidMil's one dead dryer we now have one dead forklift?

I have a job that allows me to hunt several states if I wanted to. I have done this from time to time but really don't want to pay for so many out of state fees.

Don't know about the dryer, but the forklift has tines. Is it scorable and does it count towards the contest?

The forklift lived and is still in use today and thankfully no one was fired over the incident.

I guess that's a no. It won't count in the contest since it's not dead. Very quick observation RIStrutStopper.

You and me both. Although I really can only spend about 6 hours a day. And I am done at noon on Fridays all year.
