I had a sling on my T/C Cherokee I had. I really liked having that.

According to the weather forecast, another week of cold, cloudy and wind here for the most part. Tomorrow is supposed to be severe clear, low winds but in the teens in the morning and not over 30* all day. Its the only halfway decent day of the week. Not sure if I'm ready to go out just yet, still a bit one the weak side, but we shall see.

Due to my unfortunate situation, as well as some other factors, it appears as if I might have conceded and defected. Wife ordered me one of those.........cough, cough...............Oh my, how it hurts to type this..............cough, cough........Cheater Sticks. If I want to get back out there and squirrel hunt, now that I have lost most all of my squirrel woods, I'm going to have to take it easy for a while. So no marching up and down steep grades.

Oh Lawdy, what's the world coming to. Everything is so whacked out of proportion. The irony of defeat. I shall never be the same. Its going to require some mighty strong willpower to get over this one.
you hang in there bud!!!! I know there have been a lot of prayers being sent for you and your family. you got this 👍 💪 🙌

that's a good 👍 pic. danggg that's a long barrel. I like that. and your chair.ive never seen one like that.it looks like it has a strap to go around the tree. BET it's stable like that. thanks for posting
 
Couldn’t stand being in this house any longer. I’m not ready to go to the woods just yet, so I thought I’d try my luck easing around in the thicket behind my house. And I’ll be darned.

It’s cold out this morning so after I got Mr. Rabbit I decided that was good nuff for the day. Came back to the house, cleaned up Mr. C, having a cup of coffee to warm up, then out to clean da bunny.

Mr. C is loaded and ready again. Some snow tonight but it’s supposed to be clear all day tomorrow and very cold. I need to go on a recovery mission tomorrow to pick up a trail cam I left up in the thicket from hell. Reckon I’ll take Mr. C along and just ease up through there. Hoping to find a couple of squirrels on the ground digging around.
glad u got out there.just please be careful out there.wishing u the best 👌

I’m glad you are feeling a lot better.
Just don’t overdo it and be patient.
I love rabbit just as much as squirrels 🐿️
 
I’d like to see pictures of your sling Fred.
Here's a few pics of the sling on the Crockett. This is the first time on my Crockett. I used it for my SxS 12ga and my CVA Express Rifle SxS .50, the CVA is a heavy gun. I've had this sling for 25 years.
As far as fitting the Crockett Rifle I feel is just fine. It's adjustable for length.

A close up of how it fits the crescent buttstock. How it hangs. One of the pictures is where I slid the top loop down to the forearm to keep it tight to the top of the barrel out of the way of the sights. If loose it can and will get in the way of you sights. To mecit no big deal, I just figure away around something of it's not working and make work for me.
I like it and will be getting a couple more for my others guns.
