Thank you Thomas and Pat.

Every serious primitive morel hunter should really have one or two.

Thanks Pappy. I know Elon says no one will have to work in another twenty years.  Can’t think of anything more boring.  Yes I like to keep busy. My hands need to be doing something to keep my mind healthy.

I can’t sit in the house all day. If I do you know I’m not feeling good and very sick. I think you know the feeling.

I know the feeling very well BJ. I have several buddies that come down and can set by the camp fire all day long and do nothing, I love the camp fire and hanging out but have to be moving around working on this or that and stop by the fire for a laugh now and then. :)

Overall I like to stay fairly busy, but I try to balance my doing stuff time with my sitting around time.  Sometimes I have a little too much of one or the other, but they seem to even out over time.   ;D  Life is all about balance...

I’m probably a little guilty of that too WB.

It’s kinda funny sometimes. When I first meet the lady who became my wife she would say “oh do you really have to go to work?”  Now she asks. “Don’t you have to go to work?”lol. I’m thinking for the most part our balance is pretty good.

But it is something I need to watch out for.

Have this slightly wiggly one Arvin sent me. It had 3 3/4” reflex almost all of it in the handle. I have it to 50 at 24” right now. It feels good right here for now. It holds 3 1/4”right after shooting and 3 1/2 after resting
