What is your gun related activity bucket list? I am not talking about a specific gun or item but an activity or accomplishment. One of my big ones is to make master class. I have made a class in ipsic and steel challenge, was almost to master in highpower before i had to stop. Master always just eludes me. The other one is an Alaska hunting trip.

To improve my long range skills. Our club goes to 300 yards. Not far for some. But to me it's a challenge with the smaller gongs.

WY guided elk hunt, I've been buying points for a few years now. I've killed a couple 5x4 bulls and some cows DIY on public ground (CO and WA), but I really want to do the horseback wall tent thing and get a nice 6x6. I've been saving up as it's going to be in the $10K range all together.
My wife thinks I'm crazy as I can't stand horses.. maybe a mule then.
2ndly, I've gotten kind of bored with IDPA and 3gun, so I'm either going to get back into shotgun or silhouette competitions.

Build from scratch, my own designs, flinter, cap lock canoe gun, bolt rifle, rolling blocks x3 pistol, rifle, shotgun, revolver, and 1911. Once that’s done, bronze cannon and full limber. If I do that then I may be inclined to procure a draft horse. But I despise the upkeep of a horse, so I would have to be filthy rich. That’s why the simplistic bronze cannon is last on the list.

Getting one example of each action type or major design... .
A. Beat Pritzger's unconstitutional gun ban by spending, talking and writing.
B. Get both my cataract and knee fixed so I can have a chance at better than third (last year) at the club trap championship
C. Finish my Illinois Lifetime Whitetail Slam (bow, shotgun, archery, handgun and rifle) with one of my straight wall single shots.
D. Still be shooting at 79.

Bagging a wild hog, then curing the meat (after letting it rest in the freezer for a month). Can only guess how tasty they must be.

Probably attend a really couple good classes with some friends. Something like Gunsite 250 Pistol then 350 Pistol or a carbine class back to back. That would be great!

My first deer hunt. Good, consistent marksmanship out to 200 yards.

Good thermal scope and some nighttime pig and coyote hunting. Maybe a suppressor.

Dip my toes in black powder cartridge hand loading.

Being closer to the end than the beginning and having MS, I really don't have anything on a bucket list. If I was healthy I would like to go Pheasant hunting when my shooting buddies make their annual trip. And I always wanted to go on a Sheep hunt. But, I'm not up to either one anymore. It is what it is..............

WestKentucky---Instead of a horse, get a Polaris (or any brand) 4x4 to tow your cannon around. Would be cheaper than horse in the long run.

I just hope to keep shooting.
Take grandkids when I get a chance. Cowboy Action is about all I can manage. 2 grandsons enjoy them and go with me.
Dove hunt is a chore. Turkey or goose is not likely. Quail and pheasant are out.
Anything requiring much walking.
Way more days behind me, than ahead, but as long as they continue, I will do what I can.
