Wife insisted I add “ tinkering” … I like to build stuff ( went to school for welding before deciding to stay on farm)… and I like Diesel engines ( although not cat’s ) and they tend to get mixed up… currently building a steel moveable shooting bench and “ shopping” for a motor to build a genset with…

If possible i would like to see pictures of the steel moveable shooting bench

I like to pack into the wilderness, have twelve horses and mules . Also have bass boat and Harley to give me something to do in between pack trips. Did get me a new Polaris 1000 crew and toy hauler this year for chukar hunting, that has been fun. Have trail cams out now so dogs and I check them late afternoon before dark. Drink a couple beers and reload after dark as snow is on and it is cooooold. In my spare time I build horse tack and repair saddles etc. LIFE IS GOOD

Fishing for big cats is fun.

You need a bigger net

Raising 3 little ones from 10mo-13yr I would say my main hobby is their sports and functions. But aside from that Bass Fishing has always been my true passion. Free time is almost non existent

That’s how my passion for fishing got so strong. When the kids were growing up and our business was getting started about the only thing we could afford to do was camp and fish. And we did a lot of it

Good call. Been meaning to do that. I don’t always use a net. Still reach in and grab them in the mouth at times.

Just teasing, we use a gaff to get most of our catch aboard

We catch and release the cats.

Paint was rusting through and motor needed rebuilt. It don't look like this now. This pic was ten yr. ago
Its on blocks, motor out and body in epoxy primer. Work in progress. Randy

I had a 70 Javelin when I was in high school. Loved that car. Sadly, rolled it my senior year because an on coming driver forced me off the road on a narrow country road, no shoulder. My second one was a 71 or 72 can't remember, but like the first one better. Had put a lot into blue printing and balancing the engine, Perelli P7 60 series tires all the way around and it was British Racing Green. She was a fun car for sure.

Then the gaff would be a poor choice

I used to fish bass tournaments. Now I anxiously await my trips to Mexico’s mountain lakes.

When not shooting or reloading I cycle and hack around with technology.

The town I live in has a lot of freight trains go through that wreak havoc on traffic. We live on the edge of town in view of the tracks. I wrote a program that looks at pictures from a camera, identifies when a train is headed towards town, and sends out alerts to users that there's a train on the way.

I took up shooting hoping it would be cheaper than racing cars. It’s not. So now I shoot and just open lap my daily.

Ive been racing motorcycles since i was a very young lad so off road riding is a hobby i have had since my first 1978 honda i still have. Heres a toy i just built for poker runs just for showing out a bit. My brother has a 350x and i replaced my overbore 250r with this. Had to sacrifice one of my mx bikes for it but it sure is a lot of fun.

I've done all the racing stuff, motocross, dirt track, drag racing, hill climbing and just this week I'm in the process of purchasing a side x side (KRX 1000 teryx) but just because I'm old doesn't mean my mind is!

Brew beer (a Honey Weizen is in the fermenting bucket now, and will go into the keg in about a a week).
Coffee. I live on coffee.
Espresso machine, various brewing pots (moka, siphon, french press, etc)
Also been roasting coffee for about 10 years. Last did a major upgrade, and bought this roaster. Will roast up to 2 lbs at a a time, and runs on propane. I'll roast a batch this evening. The pic is pre-heating for my 50th roast I did on it, which was a about a month ago.
A couple weeks ago, I purchased a new coffee grinder for the espresso machine. Almost $2,000 for that.
Makes the shooting hobby look cheaper all the time.
