I'd love to go fishing for some Large-mouths, we don't have them over here. I did however catch this little beauty and several of her siblings the other day! Posted Image

She weighed approximately 3.5lb, not bad considering she had spawned earlier this year. The final picture is of me returning her to fight valiantly another day. Posted Image

Received a call from Blue Skeen last night. It was good to talk to Blue and hear he is doing well. He is looking forward to upcoming tournaments.

Yesterday, I completed 35 out of 50 Fastbands, shared a bottle of wine at the summer house with an uncle while we came up with an idea for a new 300W LED lighting pendulum and attended a Chinese wedding banquet.

Went to Wal-Mart and bought a bamboo cutting board to make me some slingshots. Marked it all out for eleven forks. Cut out four of them and finished two of those. Ordered some 1/16" thick gum rubber for my slingshots to enjoy. Here's a couple of pictures:Posted Image

I have enjoyed shooting the second of these very much. It's amazing to realise that they were presented so long ago; the original and best.

Got up at 8:40. Went to Lowes and got some door sealers for the bottoms of my
front and back doors.

Ate breakfast.

Set-up my catchbox/target and started practicing at 33 ft. Target size was 2" diameter circle
and a 3" diamond shape.

Didn't shoot my King Cat at all today. It was 2 SS's from Bill Hays and 4 SS's from Gary "Flatband" Miller.

My percentages is getting better with non-sighted SS's. After 400 shots I was hitting 40-50%.
I shot 20 rounds per SS and averaged from my hits. I fiquered out a way to zero in on your target
with whatever slingshot you may use. I don't know if anybody has ever thought of this or not but
it's extremely effective. I will wait till after the East Coast Tournament before I reveal this technique.
I believe this will take SS accuracy to elite levels. Sorry, but you'll have to wait. I want every advantage
I can get. Rumor has it that some guy from Kentucky can shoot aspirin out of the air. With that being said,
I have to come up with ways to compete against the likes.

Great day of shooting along with a revolutionary accuracy technique I discovered.

Let's just hope he never "goes postal" with that beast. That'd be sure to make global headlines, and change gun laws forever.

Hey, I wonder if he's Ted Nugent in disguise. ^_^

...was diagnosed with the flu. Haven't had the flu in several years. Started coming down with it on Christmas night. I am the first documented case at my doctors location. You can't get anything accomplished when you have it. They prescribed Relenza. Hopefully the worst is over.

Today, while shooting a rock shooter, one of the black theraband bands tore in two a quarter inch from the pouch. Tonight, I will replace the black bands with theraband gold.

I pray you get well quickly Jim!! I have the same and it has really knocked me for a loop. My case started on Sunday. Been mostly laying down since then. :( I hope to be working again next week.
