Title: Accept the Challenge
Post by: JohnP on May 09, 2017, 04:17:21 PM
General Patton once said:

"Accept the challenges so that you can feel the exhilaration of victory."
George S. Patton

I have accepted the challenge and will savor the victory this coming fall.  In fact I am so damn confident that I will beat this that not only have I bought a new caller but also a new AR, DPMS Oracle.

Here's to a full and complete recovery!

Coyotes and bobcats-- look out!  You'll probably shoot another cougar on your way to your fist calling stand.   :highclap:

When I was going through various stages of blindness I got a large computer screen plus a radiation barrier, made the font huge and would put my face up to the screen and read about hunting and fishing.  That's when I found this site.   I thought about what I wanted to do when and if I got better, and regretted that I had not kayaked more when I could, because I enjoyed it.  I researched the ideal kayak for me and bought it at the first glimmer of recovery.  Best toy I ever bought, and it has value to me above its price and utility that I cannot express.

That new AR is the best medicine you've got.

Nice looking rifle.  What glass on top?

I really hope you can make it to LBL next year.

Vortex Strike Fire, but I took it off and put a Nikon P-223 on it.  Was going to the range last week but right before we left I got to trembling pretty bad so range report will have to wait.

I hope so too Johnny and if at all possible I will.
