YEP!!

My only deelemmer now is do I shoot the 1st groundhog with it or let Diane do it & have her anoint it with 1st blood.

Guess that depends on who wins the tug-of-war getting it outta the truck.

Sounds like a good time for a poll to me

. Let Diane do it & have her anoint it with 1st blood.
. Let Diane do it & have her anoint it with 1st blood.
. Let Diane do it & have her anoint it with 1st blood.
. Let Diane do it & have her anoint it with 1st blood.

Don't forget to cast your vote (for the best shot)

My vote is for Diane to be the first. I think that is the second item in the poll.

Problem solvers!! All yawl!! Thats what you guys are. Problem solvers!!

I gots me a new Swift 4-12 on the way for the 5MM!!

HaMeR · March 21, 2011, 08:44:50 AM

Dontcha just love new things??!!

I got the Swift setting purdy on top of the 592 this AM. I'm hoping the weather holds out now so I can sight her in & use my new target stand.

Thru the yellow lens cover.

Does Diane know you put a new scope on her rifle?

Oh, I vote the same as Jerry in the poll. Let Diane shot the first chuck with her new rifle.

HaMeR · March 21, 2011, 12:17:55 PM

She came home for lunch & seen it.

I think it may have gotten me some brownie points too!! Yesterday I told her if she likes this rig enough to claim she could BUT,, no more Marlin 17HMR for her!! That baby would be all mine again!!!!!!!!

If she takes "the deal" as I suspect she will then MY Marlin gets a new silver Swift Premier 4-12!!

Was gonna shoot it today but the winds are ripping. They are supposed to lay over night until tomorrow AM late. Maybe I can get out there around 8AM & get things finalized.

HuntnCarve · March 21, 2011, 04:10:10 PM

What's the saying: "What's yours is hers, and what's hers is hers.." I believe your .17HMR is no longer yours?

Nice try though!

I want it back!!

Hawks Feather · March 21, 2011, 04:49:58 PM

Glen,

If this is the first time that you have a case of the "wants it back", you have led a sheltered life.

Jerry

HaMeR · March 21, 2011, 05:06:45 PM

You should hear her talk about MY FireBall!! She talks like it's hers or something.

WldWldWest · March 22, 2011, 10:28:47 AM

Swift

Why?

HaMeR · March 22, 2011, 11:53:36 AM

Cause I put one on the FireBall & I like em.

WldWldWest · March 22, 2011, 12:28:39 PM

I guess they work good on those Girl-Calibers

I spect my shootin Irons would shake the glass out of em though

HaMeR · March 22, 2011, 01:18:38 PM

Dick!!

I'm gonna take a girl caliber out here after bit & smack a groundhog with it I think.

WldWldWest · March 22, 2011, 02:58:38 PM

It took me a while but.....I've come to the conclusion that you need a job

HaMeR · March 22, 2011, 03:08:49 PM

No doubt. I'm looking around here but so far nothing. I've sent soooo many resumes out & called a ton of places in the phone book but so far no luck. No body wants to hand out applications anymore. They just want a resume sent to them. I suppose it helps them weed out the useless at a cheaper rate.

Todd Rahm · March 22, 2011, 04:01:25 PM

I still need to put a scope on my 591.

IS it about time for the Hawgs Glen?
