Well I’d be cool missing them

You can use my shotgun. It's very easy to hit clays with. Even if you miss them all you will still look glorious, Comrade!

weather looks nice this morning.

trees aren't moving, so no wind.

[Lakota 342]

I have my ez-up in the back of my truck ..just in case we want to use it as well.

 

 

[Sota 1,191]

FYI, in case i'm first one there, I'll be in my jeep with biz logos on the doors.

[Displaced Texan 11,731]

Have fun, y’all. Sorry I’m missing this one. 

[Scorpio64 5,147]

Sadly, I had to miss this one too, and it's all Zeke's fault..  Here I am, slaving away at home working on my kitchen remodel while @Zeke is out there having fun shooting clays.  It should be me out there shooting clays, and Zeke here slaving away in my kitchen.  I mean, he's the construction expert, people should stick to what they are best at, hence, why it should be me out there busting clays.

I find this logic strangely satisfying.

Lemme guess.... you still haven’t found your mags

[ChrisJM981 924]

I was up all night with the baby. Poor guy is teething and has a stomach bug. I went to bed around 445, so there was no way I was making it to Clinton for 9am. Hope everyone had a blast!

I did find the mags. 

[Sota 1,191]

Good time.

[Mrs. Peel 7,157]

Sorry I couldn't make it... sounds like it was a good turnout! Hope you all had fun.

[Zeke 5,504]

Dude... you were supposed to bring some fancy space gun so I could bust clays! Even a little girl made fun of my misses

[Sota 1,191]

figured out what's wrong with my thrower.
bad motor.

after tearing the whole thing apart, I opened the "gearbox" to watch and see if it was skipping.  I can hold the throwing arm and stop everything visible from spinning, including the driveshaft coming out of the motor.

Swell.

ETA: motor assembly is $60.

I don't like that.

$60... might be time for a new unit instead.

 

[Sota 1,191]

That sort of what I'm thinking.

Anyone got a source on a champion unit in the sub $200 range, that's worth a damn?

Is that your second?  With the second, the teething and all is a lot less pain in the ass... have another. =P

And the correct answer is... you stay up.... you go shoot, then go home, and crash in bed.

if you posted that because it said $160 on the site, it redirects to amazon which is currently $240

It's the driving an hour each way on no sleep I have an issue with.

Plinking afterwards went decently.

 

[Sota 1,191]

Why you no say you go plink too?

I could have brought a couple of my Henry's as well.

[JohnnyB 4,323]
