You still with us Buddy?

Has it really been a couple of years + since we talked ?? So much has gone by, so fast. Dad passed a year ago Feb. Mom is in assisted care. I haven't been to the range since my one time after the 338 Fed was finished 2 years ago. How's the family? Say 'Hey" I need to reconnect with the world.........

Hey ! It's been a while... so I'm just sitting here in the house, with an Adult beverage #3 on the shy side of giving up the ghost.

1st, Thanks for the help with the 338. You did me a good one.

Current situation is keeping me close to home, Reallly close. Mom had a hip replacement last week. Both Mom & Dad in an assisted care facility, for now. I've backed off the work schedule so that I can be at home during the week, because neither can be left unsupervised. Just pulling 12hr shifts on the weekends.

I'm not big game hunting this year. Pheasants !! It's a quick, easy 1/2 -1 hr little side step on the way home from work and because I'm only working the weekends now, there are zilch other hunters on my public access areas after I get off on Monday mornings.

I'm just biding my time until the WY '17 season. 'Lope's for sure, Cow Elk or bear as a second tag....we'll just have to wait and see.

And !! Merry Christmas to you & yours.

S' Fi

You're only a couple of weeks away from heading out, right ? Ready, or antsy? I finally decided on my 7mm/08 load, but the rifle still needs zeroed. My backup 308, isn't even close yet. Just not enough time to drive the 1 1/2 hrs to a range around here. But I'll get at least one more in.

Best wishes of the Hunt God's for ya.

Keep me posted, 'K.

When R U going to be in Wyoming ? Maybe grab a doe tag in #23 (I just picked up two), and a beer, if your ying matches my yang ?

Well, I drew a Lope & Deer tag, you got your Deer tag. Call it even. If I get a deer, you get 1st dibs if you do. Cool?

Couple of probably dumb questions, but I just don't know.

Do I need to buy a Conservation tag/permit/license aside from my big game tags?

Any other quirky crap I need to buy to stay legal?

Thanks for the help.

Sounds good. Luck to ya. Hell, for that matter, to us both !

1st one to post that they drew a Lope tag gets 1st dibs on posting their pic the fall ??????
