Well guys we only shot 231 today but it sure was windy. I shot my trusty FX500 today and as always it was a pleasure. I’ve told many people I think the 500 is bulletproof. I would have to count my tins but I bet I’ve shot well over 15000 rounds and have not had a single problem. Everyone that shoots it tells me they want it if I decide to get rid of it. I can’t convince anyone it’s the shooter & not the gun. But back to the hunt...we were shooting 2 mildots of wind most of the day. At noon we decided to go to Ruidoso for lunch, so that wasted over 4 hrs. Had a nice Schlotzsky sandwich though. It’s back to the grind tomorrow and I will be shooting my .25 Impact.

Broke 1000 today for a final total of 1023 birds. We only shot 203 today for a few reasons. First, I’m getting old and tired! Three days almost non stop is tough on me. Secondly, we found & and gained permission to hunt at three more diaries in the area. I was thinking if I come this far to hunt, let’s make it worth my while and find a few more. My next trip will be in November. Scott and I will spend Tuesday night near Goldthwaite TX where we will shoot pigs at night for two days. Hope to see many of you folk at EBR. Until then keep shooting.
