Getting Hooked

[jjp]

The man goes to El Paso to shoot HP and comes back having learned how to make use of his scrap metal....what else did the crazy mexicans teach you about the sport?

Innocent

I believe they shoot a different sport. I first had to set up these huge targets. They had to be carried up a 20' sand dune in tennis shoes. Then they had to be space what seemed a mile apart, since the rookie didn't realize that they would look like they were snuggled up together when you looked at them a country mile a way. Then when we got back to the firing line. I had to clean out my shoes. 15#'s of sand came back from the animals with me. Then I started drinking I believe a case of water.

Then I get to try my hand at HP. For some reason Green is a very popular gun color for someone. I now know why. Hell on Earth!!!! Not a living plant in El Paso. No grass, no anything. They try to make up for the lack of green on their equipment. All I can figure. Then the rest of the green goes into their green ketchup(salsa). They probably import the veggies from somewhere else for that also. I can't see how anything could grow around there except my waste line.

I shot a nesika rifle in 6.5x47. It was a great experience. I don't believe I've ever been more nervous shooting in my life. I am hooked. It is the most fun shooting I've ever tried. I shot a 20 out of 40. 7 chickens, 5 pigs, 4 turkeys, 4 rams. I've got lots of excuses and some might be legit but I had a great time and will be back if El Paso can handle me.

Thanks to my Mexican friend with the green guns. You did way to much for me. I had a wonderful time. Let your better half know I made the fideos (soup) yesterday. Turned out very well. I hope that was the name of it.
