Whatever happened to Scottyboy?

I have not seen him post in a while. I always enjoyed his posts, as he and I shared the value of staying in shape, etc.

Anyone heard from him?

He is hunting the world

He is a booking agent/taxidermist now I think. Did he´s first "capra slam" last year.

Think its called Global Pursuit or something like that.

The listed certifications are "badasses."

A bit much for me.

He and I used to pal around some. He moved back "home" to Texas and have lost track. We did the Australia DR hunt together along with Cal, Mike Brooks and Omnivorous Rob. We had a great time and made fun of Cal's splinter for days.

Cal has reminded me I shot his .600 there. I guess my memory was erased from the recoil.

I also lost touch with SB. I don't see his hunts offered or his taxidermy work any longer.

Steve: You understate the splinter I had. The pain was like a Civil War amputation with a dull saw.

That whole thing is dull and distant memory. I think you 600's recoil disrupted my gray matter to the point I cant recall. I do however remember a rather ancient looking Aboriginal woman with a long dull knife poking at your finger.

Cal's a wuss. Joyce would have just amputated the finger for him.

Watch what you say, Steve, that woman is now wearing my diamond.

Jim:
I know you're a retired PA, but honestly, I don't think I need a prostate exam every time we shoot.

Cheers to both of you gents and see you May 6 at the shoot. Jim, I've got my shooting shed heated and feel free for you and the Mrs. to come shoot in comfort anytime this winter.

Cal,

Thanks for the offer my friend. Might actually be fun.

What's the distance shed to target? I've got a sinister black single barrel I need to sight in.

Cheers

50 yards shed to target.
100 yards if you go back in the driveway and use sticks.
