Sounds good 'Dan, enjoy yer break, sounds like you and your girl have gone way past earning it! Someday before I die I need to see Australia and NZ. All I need is lots of time and dough, LOL!
Ramos, I was shooting near a pond and the 'flys kept landing on the target. I was doing a 50, 100, 200, 300y trajectory test and when I was at 50 that one guy wouldn't buzz off. I helped him become one with the Earth, which made me feel all happy inside.
Central NY is pretty much crop and dairy, with the usual mix of urban spots. Unlike the west, the varmint density is pretty thin,

so we have to take what comes to hand, LOL! Woodchucks, coyotes, crows are the main targets,
That pond is loaded with bullfrogs though (well, it WAS loaded...), so I think I've found my low-budget version of prarie dogs. My son and I burned 50 40gn bergers there in no time.

, that was about the best shooting I've ever enjoyed. We just staked 100 - 200 yards out and took turns spotting/shooting.
'Farmer down the road has a starling problem, so I'm working on a strategy to "help".
