What is your weekness ?

Post by gerald strine »

I have a week spot for buying flashlights , ever since they came out with these cree bulbs that put out mega lumens in a small hand held light or head lamp I have a hard time passing them up.
I buy a couple every year even though I have no need for another.
In the old days if you had AA mag light with a head strap and a spare bulb that was top of the line you were good to go, maybe a d cell mag in the truck for night tracking.
But the new bulb technology is so much brighter than the old it is amazing.
Soon Home depot will have out the Holiday Bargen bins and their will be the Coast flash lights and I will hard pressed not to buy another one , I think I need help, Flash Lights Anonymous or FLA :?

Scopes!! Lol

Still searching for that perfect crossbow scope! :)
A touch of frost has heightened your awareness and your heart steadily beats in anticipation. Your senses are suddenly alert to the movement on the forest floor and you realize that the moment of truth is at hand.

Targets for my pellet guns. Been collecting them for years. Got 3 big bins, and still always looking for different ones. Got thousands already glued to light cardboard, but still keep printing more and glueing them to thin cardboard. Guess pellets also and glad I was a Hoarder. Went all through six months of total quarantine as a cancer driver, shot for 10 to 12 hours a day and never had to panic about stock. I since have my stocks built back up. I always wonder what the recycle truck driver thinks every week. :silent: Some play video games, some of us do the real thing. Last video game I played cost me a quarter and got 2 games. :D

Shoot something everyday of my life in the house including crossbows. Got eleven 3D archery, four Bulldog targets that have not been shot yet. That's me. Collect everything that shoots or can be shot. :lol:

Used to be climbing Treestands, I currently have three but have had at least four others. Now, Excalibur Crossbows, especially the older models.

Old Chevy trucks, anything with a Honda engine, and Excalibur crossbows. I just like stuff that works.
Take care

I'm currently trying to kick the broadhead habit. I told myself I wasn't going to buy any but recently I bought some Truglo Tis. Going to have to go to rehab :mrgreen:

Hmm, this season it seems to be trail cameras and replacement parts but I think I've got that issue resolved. :lol:

But ya'll aren't alone. I think I've only purchased two flashlights this year. And although my daughter and I have carried five different types of broadheads to the woods this season, all six shots taken were with the same model (Truglo Ti-X 4-blade). Now I've got to figure out what to do with the 3+ dozen other assorted heads I have if they're never going downrange.

I guess rimfire rifles are my weakness, but I'm even curbing that habit. I sold two to purchase one to free up a spot in the gun cabinet. The Savage Mark-II Minimalist is a great shooter and a pleasure to carry.
