Old Guys vs Young Guys

[musketman]

Hell, I haven't seen my glasses for two days, much less my gun...

They're in the garage on your work bench, you took them off when you were getting ready to mow the lawn. :grin:

My glasses or my gun?

Actually,I found the glasses. They were tipped up on top of my head. :hmm:

 

[R.M.]

Boy, you old farts that can't find your guns! I have no problem finding my guns or bag, but for the past couple of months, I haven't been able to find the range. :shocked2: Put 2K miles on the ol' buggy and still ain't found it. I think somebody stole it.

 

[Bartek]

-boy what is the name of that German, who takes all my things and hides them from me!? :cursing:

- Alzheimer grandpa... Alzheimer. :shake:

Range, we need a range? The wife has a range, but I don't want to shoot it...again. She had a cow the last time. It wasn't the cow that bothered me, it was the yelling that accompanied the cow.

To be honest, I would rather spend time with the cow. It has a better disposition.

God bless

My wife and I are in disagreement about one of the rules. She seems to believe that I was supposed to wait for the printer to FINISH making the target before I shot it. I said there would have been bonus points for hitting the moving target. Please answer soon, the winner doesn't have to buy the new printer. :hmm:

 

[jethro224]

Well Trent, yer both wrong. You wasn't s'posta print it in the first place, so she loses. No extra points, so you lose.


:hmm: :hmm: :hmm: I guess you win after all. Since you ain't got a printer, you get to shoot at all of the papers. :thumbsup: :haha:

 

[R.M.]

I was thinking that I'd shoot at a blank piece of paper, then draw the X. :rotf: :surrender:

This thread has had me smilin' since it began.
'Nother "old" guy - that feller that keeps lookin' at me from t'other side of the mirror - he wants to shoot this match.
What's the count so far? Looks like the "mature" team has a bit of an edge in numbers.....

:grin: :grin: ............well that's ok; but here's how I was thinking of doing it.........
First you get a BIG sheet of paper 48"X 36" most of us should be able to [strike]see[/strike] hit that. You take your shot and suposedly you hit it. Then you carefully measure 4-1/4" horizontally to either side of the hole. Next you measure 5-1/2" verticaly above and below the hole, and cut your paper out along these lines. Once you have cut your target down to 8-1/2"X 11" all you gotta do is draw a line from corner to corner. :wink: :wink:
Moral:........you gotta watch them old guys.......... :rotf: :rotf:

"The mature team" ......... I like that :hmm:

Although my wife would disagree.

 

[Jim/OH]

Well at least we have 2 months to find everything (gun, glasses, paper, etc.), and get it done. :grin: I think the "Old Guys" will be fine, so you young whipper-snappers better watch out. :thumbsup: Now - - If I remember right I think the powder goes in first. :hmm:

See ya, Jim/OH :hatsoff:

Another word for old farts is devious. Though in college, I'm a "non traditional student". Don't really know what a non traditional student means, other than it doesn't have anything to do with plastic zip guns.

I would rather be devious than non traditional.

So, who has a pad of 48" X 36" target paper? Is using an "enhanced" target devious or nontraditional? :hmm:

IMHO, experience and a devious nature will always prevail over youth and exuberance. :v

God bless

:haha: According to MY wife, there ain't a "mature" member on here. Or anywhere else in the entire male half of the species...

So far it looks like there'll be a whole lot less math involved to figger the Young Guys' average. I think we're maybe outnumbered. :hmm:

For two days, JD?!?! Good Lord, you guys are funny!!! :rotf:

Ya don't need a smoothie to participate in this contest. Ya only have to be mature or immature. GW

 

[R.M.]

Love to get in on this, but no smoothie... :cursing:

I got a smooth head. :rotf:
