I mentioned I took a photo yesterday of our friend Stumpy.
Here he is... http://tinyurl.com/2uwsu9 Stumpy is the last remaining stump in our future drain field.* He has survived about four years of heavy gunfire. He used to be much larger, but he's been shot about a zillion times. There's a pretty decent sized Chunk'o'Stumpy on the ground there, the result of automatic fire from a real "assault" weapon.** Oh. The beer cans. Miller Lite empties from the last barbecue out there. No drinking allowed in conjunction with shooting. Not my cans, though. I wouldn't drink a Miller Lite if I were stranded on the Mojave Desert. * Stumpy is the stump under the chunk'o'fire wood on his head. ** The guy who owns it has the proper licenses. -- George W. Bush - The Nightmare is Almost Over |

I do have to agree, that does look like the most redneck photo I have ever seen. Rednecks always love to drink some Budweiser and shot beer cans. Were you sitting on the trailer porch when you shoot stumpy and the beer cans? I noticed that there are also leghold animal traps in the photo, do you feed them your food scraps before or after setting the traps? |

He's been with us, so to speak, for about four years. We got tired of referring to it as "the stump," or "that damned stump," so last year we named him Stumpy. Stumpy is one damned tough stump. When we actually have the drain field dug, he'll have to go, but until then...he's Stumpy. Stumpy is exactly 25 yards from the edge of the gravel drive, so he makes a perfect holder for targets of various kinds. There's a couple of cords of firewood stacked high some yards behind Stumpy that act as a backstop. -- George W. Bush - the 43rd Best President Ever! |

Not much of a stump, at least in my neck of the woods, but the so called
animal traps are defintely animal shaped steel spinner targets. So how do you like the Ruger Vaquero? The only one I ever shot in .357 bit like hell. UD |

The only one I ever shot in .357 bit like hell. UD As I said, "Stumpy" used to be larger, but what you see is the result of about four years of being a target, or a target holder. I have no idea why anyone thought the spinner targers were animal traps. Ignorance, I suppose. The Vaquero, ah, I love it and so did everyone else. I only had a couple of boxes of ammo for it (I only brought one revolver with me), and as soon as I shot off the first few rounds, everyone else wanted to shoot it, too. It has a bit less barrel flip than, say, a semi-auto that shoots .40 S&W. These were a real steal. I got them at a gun shop where they were on consignment sale, and I paid less than half the typical retail. One of the pair had less than 100 rounds fired through it, the shop owner said, and the other had never been fired. Consecutive serial numbers, nice presentation box. I'm looking for a nice holster set. Lots of accessories around for these cowboy revolvers. |

Anyone who shoots handguns "offhand" knows you have to be stone sober to hit the cans at that distance. Not if you practice drunk. |

The site is the future drain field and is the only flat, cleared spot on the entire property. Everything else is wooded, or very hilly or ravines or too close to the water. It works fine for pistol practice, and for some occasional rifle practices and tossing clays. I don't hunt. There's a pasture nearby for more high powered stuff. I'm not much of a rifle fan, though I understand the precision needed for long-range target shooting. |

Very similar to some of the good, German, full-bodied beers. Even the "light" version isn't bad, although it has more calories than most other "regular" beers. Second best American beer, although not originating from a microbrewery, is "Amberboch", an Anheuser-Busch product. Not available everywhere, the draft version is much better than the bottled. Unfortunately, I finally hit the age where I can't drink either anymore. Too heavy. An occasional Coors Light is about all I can handle now. Eisboch |

Yes, very good beer. I also like Sierra Nevada's Pale Ale (quite hoppy), and their Summer Ale. I like a lot of different types, I brew one hell of a Hefeweizen. Second best American beer, although not originating from a microbrewery, is "Amberboch", *an Anheuser-Busch product. *Not available everywhere, the draft version is much better than the bottled. It's okay, and I totally agree that the draft version is pretty good! Unfortunately, I finally hit the age where I can't drink either anymore. Too heavy. *An occasional Coors Light is about all I can handle now. Eisboch Ever try Amstel Light? Not great, but better than any american light except maybe Sam Adam's light. Adams has a European ale that I don't care for. Too malty. |
