Stand up, put your hand over your heart and face Texas.
So put me on a highway
And show me a sign
And take it to the limit one more time
Eagles Take It To The Limit
I've been up to something - again.
Shooting moving and stationary targets from the bed of a moving truck. Just picture Skeet with a Pickup, mixed with Teddettes,(Southern for a cardboard box cut up and whatever shape) toss a few stick-persons (stick in ground, with a coffee can atop, don't overthink this).
Needed something else - different, you know how it goes. So the trash can had all them cans from Energy drinks, Rockstar[tm] and such, you know the ones with B-Complex, vitamins, minerals and other big words.
"I hate when the boy gets that look and just starts in on something".
" I don't know, I kind of like it, keeps one from getting in rut, complacent, predictable,and..."
"You been have not been around him that long, still real scary to hear you talk like that".
Think real tall tether ball poles, cable atop attached to each. Tie a piece of 30# fishing line to this cable and a Energy drink can filled with water.
Now if you tie another piece of fishing line, to the mainline, and this line is first headed downrange, the takes a left around something, then back in a safe spot to "let go" then you can safely pull the can back, and when released, it swings toward you. Tuellerette drill.
"You should have seen the boy having that tennis ball machine tossing tennis balls at 'em and shooting them. The best part - he ran out of ammo, and just started whacking them with the stock of the shotgun, make a helluva a Olympic Event I say".
Okay B-Complex swings okay from "this view". Looks okay from the bed of truck.
" I need a driver please!"
"Sometimes the boy just jumps in with both feet plumb up to his eyeballs, you drive, I gotta see this...oh and crank up the radio, he likes to shoot to good tunes, don't forget".
Lee, I sure do appreciate the Brenneke suggestion
"Son of a gun! Hang on...15 steps, and that Rockstar is in real poor health"
"Oh my, the boy wants to do it again...can't leave well enough alone, quit while ahead..."
"You missed that one"
"Did not"
"Did too"
"Did not, it is not on the fishing line"
"Maybe it was not tied on good?"
"It was"
"Was not"
Seems there was about 4" of fishing line still tied to the Rockstar can, the mainline "cut', Brenneke's cut line.
Best figured, angle of flight can and line, very very faint mark which would indicate tip top of can ever so slightly grazed.
"Son of a gun, you can't hit a moving target with a slug, especially from a moving vehicle".
"Been reading the Internet again have you? Here, ya'll play with it with birdshot, just stand about here, you might need to shoot a Tullerette some day"
Just a bone stock Old 870 Wingmaster, fixed IC barrel.
Some folks overthink stuff, sometimes you just need to shoot the durn thing!
There are stars in the Southern sky
And if ever you decide
You should go
There is a taste of time sweetened honey
Down the Seven Bridges Road
Eagles Seven Bridges Road
Run 'em!
