Sounds like a great day out hunting. Nothing better. By the way, only 4 shots to clip the vines with the 22?.....would've taken me a whole box.

[Double Lab]

Be careful Charlie, one of those "high capacity" magazines in the ole Ruger could get you in trouble with the Feds.

no need to worry on that my friend owns the 22 ruger.... it was a good hunt but im paying today for looking up all them tall trees..my neck and shoulders are really sore today..i ve took some aleves but they aint helping to much... charlie

[C.O.B.]

Charlie your incorrectly taking the Aleve. The proper dosage is two 200mg tablets washed down with 4oz of your favorite Burbon. I tend to lean towards Jack Daniels

[Mills]

Pound for pound, Jack Daniels is the best. There are some others that are better, but those are very expensive and not cost effective. IMHO

[C.O.B.]

I have found a substitute that is about the same cost and very good if you can find it. Buffalo Trace is the name of it.

[Mills]

Pappy Van Winkle is the best bourbon I have tried, but it is very expensive and is getting harder and harder to come by.

As Gracie Allen said

In those days the best painkiller was ice; it wasn't addictive and it was particularly effective if you poured some whiskey over it.

[Mills]

I am going to remember that.
