    Archery Practice

    I finally bought a takedown recurve early in 2020. I do some practice in my backyard and when out shooting I bring the recurve bow to cut back on ammo used up. Friends thought that's a great idea and some of them started bringing bows too.

    Thinking I want a Fuji camera

    I like my Fuji XT-3 in chrome. I like not having to dig through menus or touch a screen to change the shutter speed, aperture, or ISO. Feels like old school film camera. I started with a fully manual film SLR with splitscreen viewfinder. And from a quick glance from the top I know what setting...

    Considering Nikon Monarch Fieldscope or Leupold Mk 4 - any input?

    I have the Nikon Monarch Fieldscope ED 16-48x60 now. I like it. I had the previous Nikon Fieldscope III. I wanted good quality without the high premium prices. Sometimes I wish I had a reticle. I've gotten by without ever having a reticle in the spotter so that's just how I run. The fixed...

    Rifle Scopes How Far Do You Shoot With A Red Dot

    I changed from 3x prism to a red dot recently . I didn't like the 3x prism for up close multiple target. There is no perfect one optic do all. I switched to red dot since I don't live on a ranch or farm where may need the 200+ yds. I felt optimizing for the 150 yd and under was more important to...

    Maggie’s Is it me or have package delivery taken a crap..

    I guess I'm the odd man out. I've been lucky. All of my packages in the past couple months have arrived on the scheduled day while couple packages have even arrived a day early. I do have really late package stories from years ago though.
