Not So Pro 3

Yeah but the amount of fun you can have, with trucks, snowmobiles, beer, and women.

Is almost priceless.

I'm glad i don't have the receipts. I'd wanna punch myself in the throat. I do know that broken leg at age 26 burnt through some savings.

22 years for him is like 16 years old lol

And that’s exactly when I started the bad habits - at 16 I bought my 1st and 2nd snowmobiles… lol

And fun I had! Memories were made, no doubt. But it cost me a lot. Older, more responsible me wishes I would have made more financially responsible choices.

Tell me about it, I remember turning 40 like it was last week, now 50 is rolling in, here in a few weeks.

No fuggin' idea where the last decade went, it flew right on by........WTF.

Ya blink more then once and ten years of your life is just gone.

You'll have that...
Tomorrow I'll be 60 I recon...

27 is a age I would really like to go back too, but only if I knew, what I know today.

I'd tell my 27 year old self, a few things that would save him tons of grief, in the next few years. I'd probably give him a ass kicking also.

Looking back 27 was a pivotal point in my life. It's freaking weird how one or two small choices can change so much of your life.

All that said I have no regrets (mostly) it's all part of the journey.

Same here.
Made a few bad decisions in my 20s, but can't *b-word about life from 30 to now.
Just that part that I feel like I wasted in those prime years.
Oh well, I learned things and learned them Well.
Every step we take, every breath we have breathed, had led us to where we are now.
Right, wrong, or indifferent...

Got my steel setup and decided I would take one cold bore shot with my 270. Bench is not setup yet so had to shoot prone. Hilltop crown limited me to 276 yds prone.View attachment 403315

Warm that thing up and give us a best of 3 would ya?
Good for a cold barrel.

Welp.....the Bubba and I went on a little road trip. Brought home a shaper, and a jointer. Nothing fancy, but good enough for us.

I looked rough for 30 mfer.
Damn proud to live that well too slacker...
I aint leaving chit for the buzzards or the werms....

Thanks for the insight. I feel somewhat the same about my past self, I’d wanna kick 20 year old myselfs ass. I’ve taking that into consideration at this point in time I just might think that of myself at 35(vs my 27 yr old self), 45 and so on so I’m trying to be mindful as possible.
I also realize I have a lot ahead of me but it will go by quickly, so I’m trying my best to make do of any situation.
You can also die anyday no promise of living to 50 or even 75.
So best live every day best you can even though challenges will arise

It goes by faster every day.
Problem is that we cant know what we should know when we are older when we are young. Our youth prevents it because we are learning.
Simple as that.

I've never broken a bone in my body, I've wrecked a couple of sled's going triple digits. No broken bones. Stuffed my brothers RM80 into a tree hard enough when I was 12, it was a total loss. No broken bones. I've fallen off several sections of scolding, a few times in my carreer, never broken anything then either.

I broke my back at 16.....broke ribs from falling on the job twice. The broken back wasn't painful compared to the ribs.

I haven't really looked it over real well. Heard it run.....but haven't really looked at the spindle setup to see how it is made.

I meant scaffolding. Spelling has never been my strong suit.

I'll blame auto correct.

Rifle is a shooter. First rifle I ever bought. Howa 1500. Original everything, bedded the stock myself. Will do 3" 5 shot groups at 300 all day. Will do that when I get my target frames and bench setup.

My ex tapped a tree going 35-ish MPH on her sled, she broke 3 ribs and shattered her kneecap.

She always wanted to know from me, how I wrecked & twisted up what I did at higher speed on sleds, and I never broken anything.

Maybe luck? I'm not really sure.

Tell Bubba to stand back when you run it!
