Love the leopard spots!
 
Good here went with my hubby to look at a truck a friend of his has for sale and we are going to buy it next week for him to use as a work truck. His current one is to the point it's not with putting more money in to keep it going.
 
Good Saturday?

Good work day, watching college football, best time of the year! Oh, my Gaurdians clinched the playoffs 2 games ago :star-struck:!
 
Missed pickleball this morning...


Went to the range instead. Got my daughter sighted in for deer. Found out my rifle is off by a couple of inches at 200 yards so I gotta go back and work on mine later.

Went to a baby shower for some friends.

Home now. Ready to relax and watch Blacklist.

What kind of rifle do you guys use
 
ohhh I won a 6.5 a couple years ago and still have not shot it. Really like it?
I really really do. I use federal fusion 140 and it has dropped every one i have shot as long as I got a good shot. Longest shot I have tried with it was about 250 yards.
