Shoot More......and Save Gas!
While the family was away this week, I lived the carefree life of the bachelor. And I noticed a few things that made me go "hmm?"
First off, I don't have to go anywhere to entertain myself! I didn't need to spend one drop of gas this week for entertainment if I chose not to. I have a good supply of pellets on hand, several airguns, CO2 and HPA in tanks.....all I need to enjoy many hours of shooting without burning a drop of gas!
Secondly, many of the targets in my yard hold still longer while the kids are away. Without the onslaught of children charging out of the house, varmints and pests hold still longer, giving me a much better chance of connecting with them than when the tornado of youthful exuberance descends upon them and spooks them.
Thirdly, while perusing the web, I began to notice that if I have to take my minivan on a 30-mile round trip to pick up pellets, CO2, or a new gun....I might be better off letting UPS and the Postal Service burn their gas delivering the products to me. Depending on where you are and how far you have to go for your supplies, ordering online makes a lot of sense. And I'm dead sure the selection is better online than it is in a brick and mortar store!
I also managed to purchase my yearly hunting and fishing license online this year. Just a few minutes, enter my debit card #, and a license prints out from my printer in a very friendly fashion! How convenient is that?!
With the free time on my hands this week, I managed to browse around and noticed that Compasseco is having some closeout sales on certain items. For instance, if you are a bigbore shooter who has a .45 caliber airgun, there is a closeout sale on 180 grain pellets for the .45 going on right now this week. Drop in their closeout section and take advantage of Compasseco's effort to clear more space in the warehouse for newer items!
I also ran across some great posts on how other airgunners spent their weekends, and did they have some beautiful scenery to enjoy! Take a look at these posts on the hunting forum that I run:

It's great to see other airgunners getting out and enjoying the great outdoors, enjoying their sport, and having a great time with other shooters. So stock up on the items you need to enjoy some time shooting, and let us know how you spend your shooting time!
