Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire The most fun you had with your clothes on in the last 24 hrs?

We have a winner!

I know the feeling Dutch. I had just got done pressure washing the kitchen bay windows and they made a bombing run and later that evening the bastids decided to roost in the scrub maple at about 40 yds straight out on of the windows. I opened the window and the wife says WTF as I drained the gun and it rained starlings. I had a warm fuzzy feeling for a while.

I trimmed a hanging limb and cut up some downed limbs for an 80+ year old couple and they fed me lunch. And she is a great cook. Some great fun. They keep telling me how great I am and I tell them to not tell anyone. It would be against what folks think about me. RZ.

Worked on getting my new portable/breakdown reloading bench set up.

Holding in a major shart while running to the bathroom.

Got through half a can of Copenhagen.

Santa delivered my new Kubota M7060 4WD with loader bucket and grapple.

My three year old grand daughter thinks I'm cool.

LMFAO

Pfft....Rook !

I’m crushing a can and a half each day.

Cancer be damned.

Welded a new door together for my mom's storm shelter.

Use to dip in junior high and high school, I'd just swallow it. Coach caught me dipping once, gave me the option of licks, or swallowing the dip. I laughed and swallowed it and went to my next class.

Haha, I’m pacing myself!

Not the last 24 hours but the last 48, got the last quarter of a nice cow loaded in the back of my pickup in a snowstorm by myself at 10:30 Saturday night. Gawd that felt good to get into a seat and know that I didn't have to go back down that slick sum-berditch again that night! Amen! Amen!

But I'll be back next year. You just wait and see!

Beat the brakes off em this morning, 4 limits and a double banded drake mallard with a $100 reward band.

I already had an Echo 58V but found a deal on the Makita 36V and decided to buy it too. It's a great tool for wading into a clump of honeysuckle bushes. The Echo is more powerful but the Makita is much lighter. It'll cut the larger diameter stuff but where it really shines is when I'm disassembling a big honeysuckle bush of trimming out a Bradford Pear tree.

TR,

You’re killing me !

You and Yellow dog are racking up some impressive numbers. Congrats!

I tried to get out yesterday morning for a good hunt. Got to the boat ramp and my recently gone through motor started, then it died, never to start again.

Boat back on the trailer and home. Boat goes back to the repair shop in the morning. Mechanic will see a “WTF” look on my face.

I’m looking for a new 50 hp outboard prop right now.

2 days remaining in the season on these critters. My GSP has been finding a few near the home place on the new farm during our evening or weekend walks. This evening on our walk to the mailbox I decided to carry my Grandfather's old Texas Ranger single shot shotgun. I think it is over 100 years old. It is the first gun I can remember ever seeing in our house and I am nearly 60. They were sold by Montgomery Wards in the early 1900s. I loaded a light field load of 7.5 shot in the old gun. On the way back to the house with a couple of packages I see my dog locked down tight on point in the woods North of my drive. I leave the packages in my gravel drive and walk up to my dog. I don't flush the bird on this point and she repositions a shot distance away and locks down again. This time the bird flushes and I make a clean kill between some oak trees on a hilside below the house. Mickie, my 6 year old GSP, retrieves the bird to hand. It has been a long time since I have killed a woodcock. It was great to watch my dog doing such nice work on this bird and felt great to take the bird with the old shotgun. I think this evenings activities qualify as the most fun with my clothes on today.

“Winner Winner, Woodcock Dinner!”

Sledding with the kids.
