Yep. We were like little bowhunters, adjusting for elevation and drop. You had to arc it in there and we got damn good at adjusting for distance.

I think back in the 80's it was less than $200? I was a little guy, and all my cobbled together money was in a Crown Royal bag. Quarters, $2 bills, just a hodge-podge of money from mowing lawns, birthday money, etc.

We used to bullseye surfaced turtle heads in stock ponds out past 100yds all the time. Big tanks, multiple acres. We'd set up these little 'sniper hides' on the elevated tank dam and murder those little shits. One shot. No optics. Floating little black speck smaller than a golf ball. Make it count.

After I graduated from my venerable Benjamin 347 pump I picked up a Beeman R7 spring piston rifle at McBrides. The spring piston is superior in just about every way - noticeably because there's no pumping (#yourmom) or bleed off of compressed air over time. I toted that Beeman for the better part of a decade as a "yute" and killed everything Texas has to offer short of deer/pigs. Ducks, quail, rabbits, snakes, lizards, doves, skunks, turtles, frogs, etc. It was smooth and dependable and I never had any issues with the recoil at all. Now that you mention it, I can't remember any recoil issues at all? Maybe the new ones are different, but my dad still has it up in WA state to this day almost 40 years later to thwart the random squirrel/rabbit messing with his garden. Same gun. Zero mods. Four decades later. He's older, so cocking the barrel down is more of a chore, but he's also 80+.

ChatGPT AI Tool— We all work for robots now
I'm still waiting on my flying car.... We'll see massive initial leaps in efficiency. Paper pushers. Compilers. Researchers. Analysts. Reporting. Forms and filings. All that shit becomes instantaneous. At the end of the day, you're either on the credit or debit side of the balance sheet. And for most that are on the debit side, what real value or savings is being realized by your work? For many it's substantial, but not all.

Depending upon the velocities, they are every bit as accurate as a .22lr up to 100yds. Just get the ones < 1,000fps or physics comes into play (exceeding the sound barrier - noise, etc.)

I'm old enough to remember the "internet" hysteria. It was going to end tens of millions of jobs. Conversely it created hundreds of millions over the decades. Altman is correct in that many jobs are duplicative and unnecessary. AI is going to end some of these. I'm sure there were thousands of farriers that were not super happy with the advent of the automobile. I remember as a kid the "Britannica" guy who sold us our first set. Overall, it's transformative process. Not outright elimination.

SEC Refs Suck

It is when you have no other real football traditions.- Game Week 8: Texas at MSST
It worked so well because Sark kept him in the pocket, trying to facilitate long-developing pass plays. Then on designed runs, they seemed to be delayed draws up the middle and into the teeth of the Dline.- Tell Me About Texas a&m
Hey, they did invent class rings and a vehement no grass walking policies...- Well Sir you are a cowardly son of a bitch.
- Game Week 8: Texas at MSST
Look at the aggy/AR game. AR line would break down, and their QB would flush the pocket over and over. Keeping Arch in the pocket behind this shittastic line is criminal in it's own right. He also plays better when improvising. He doesn't need to gain 10+yds every carry. But 4-5 at a clip moves the chains and keeps the defense honest.- SEC Refs Suck
Just bring in the NFL refs for playoffs and conference games, then trickle down into the regular season and phase these conference cunts out completely. They're captured by big money conference shenanigans. Funny how the fuckery only goes one way - to support and prop up higher ranked teams trying to get a payoff spot. there's too much money at stake for conferences not to put their thumb on games.- Game Week 8: Texas at MSST
They almost all are. HC's are like CEO's and think they know best - hence their paycheck and station at top schools.- Tell Me About Texas a&m
