Courage is knowing it might
hurt, and doing it anyway.
Stupidity is the same
.
And that's why life is hard

Had a bit of a tidy up in the shed and threw out a heap of stuff I was keeping for Justin Case (turns out he wasn't needed......yet).

Dragged out my tillering tree for bowmaking and had a bit of a desultory play with a project bow I was given - it was a decent longbow that came from a well known maker which ended up with a bit of a problem, so it was given to me to see if I could resurrect it. Hopefully will get a bit more done when I get some holidays, but at least I can now do a bit when I want, rather than having to move a heap of crap around to get to what I need.

Snuck out to the olds as they're away for a few days and sat over a rabbit warren. Realised I need to make up a few blinds or a gillie suit to have a decent chance of success with the air rifle as it's so dry it's very hard moving around quietly even sitting still. Was sitting there wondering if I could get away with subsonic .22WMR out of a tree stand as it's a little too close to the road for my liking, and there's horses nearby that I don't want to spook (gotta keep the neighbours happy!).

Spent a bit of time doing some e-scouting in both new areas and areas I've been close to but not visited yet. Have a few plans for the coming winter so working towards ticking a few of them off if I can.

ripped the thermal off my 308 and whacked it on my Howa 6mm ARC.

Haven't had this rifle out for over 2 yrs so I'm keen to see how it performs on some hogs, loaded up some 103gr ELD-X's as well. :drinks:
