Sometimes a practical solution looks to be ridiculous on the surface. Case in point, my latest creation for back door coyotes. It is a handy little six inch barrelled High Standard Sentinel revolver. It's chambered in .22 Long Rifle, and I have it sighted in at 40 yards with Remington Subsonics, one of my favorite loads. I drilled and tapped the receiver and installed a Weaver base I had laying around. It has a flat bottom, so it probably came from a Marlin lever gun or something. With the rear sight removed I have just enough length on the rail to install a night vision riflescope. In this case it's a US Night Vision discontinued first generation D143 with external adjustments, which I like. Since it had a rail on top I installed a Docter mini red dot. Underneath I installed a Beamshot Ultra 1000 laser and a remote pressure pad attached by velcro to the gun's grip. The remote and the mount for the laser were in my laser junk box, and I don't know the manufacturer, but similar items are available on our website.

Since it is a night vision riflescope it must be positioned with appropriate eye relief, which is about 1.5 inches from your eye. I hold the riflescope up to my eye to shoot the gun. This favorite revolver of mine has taken tons of game over the decades I have used it, and it shoots as well as any .22 handgun I own. The scope's reticle, the dot on the Docter, and the laser all converge at 40 yards with the subsonics. Looking through the scope, the laser dot is in the center of the reticle, and in daytime when I can't use the scope or see the laser, the Docter is a perfect aiming device. Ridiculous looking, certainly, but extremely functional. The gun doesn't get bounced around, so the mounting systems are plenty secure for my application. Back door song dogs, beware.

One of the most important jobs I have is to cater to My Shirley's whims. Father's day weekend is no exception. Friday after work I came home to a flooded living room and basement. Went to suck it up but my wet-vac broke. Bought a new one. Even the gun room was flooded. Kept the fans and dehumidifier on full, and that's where they're still at. Saturday morning I dropped the bike off at Harley for some work I wasn't comfortable doing myself. Stopped at a few stores and finally bought another garden shed for My Shirley. It was her birthday Sunday, the first day of spring. Shirley maintenance isn't always physical, but we always like those tasks. I cut the grass, trimmed hedges, planted some grass, cooked some meals, made a birthday cake, levelled the ground and assembled her new shed. I wanted to shoot an action pistol match Sunday morning, but my good .45 is sighted in for Gold Medal Match, and I didn't have any left. The local Cabela's didn't even have a single box of .45 ACP ammo except for two boxes of Magtech. This ammo situation is really out of hand, not just with cost, but simply getting it. So I didn't shoot this weekend.

Jerry the Instructor's Pelican case is now in his possesion. He said it was one of the nicest things that was ever given to him. I put a lot into it. His gun, completely worked over, his two different height bipods, Tipton cleaning rod and cleaning equipment, and Leupold RX1000 rangefinder all in fitted areas precisely cut out for each. On the top lid behind the foam I pasted ballistic charts, common knots, energy computations, and a picture of Rad and me taken on a Thanksgiving day hunt with Jerry years ago when all three of us were all slimmer and younger.

The weekend was great, and I hope all you Dads had an enjoyable weekend as well.

Since the beginning of recorded history, humans have had existential questions on profound matters never quite answered fully or correctly. Questions about God, the afterlife, our universe, and Canada geese come to mind. First three are comparatively easy to answer, but mankind still wonders about Canada geese and why they exist. Most think they are here to fertilize every #%$*&^%# lawn outside a bank or shopping mall or playground sandbox. That may be part of it, but the main reason they are here is for us to kill the damned locust-like honkers with whatever means available (in season with a license and state and federal stamps and non-toxic shot). After the carcasses are collected and pillow cases filled with breast feathers you still have to do something with the meat. Some folks like to thoroughly char the meat over apple wood for a couple hours, then throw away the meat and eat the wood. I have a better recommendation. The following recipe is one of my Shirley's very favorite entrees in the world. I heartily endorse it.

Ingredients:

Breast fillets from 3-4 geese cut into one inch chunks

One bottle of Kikoman's Lite Teriaki sauce

One pound of thick uncooked bacon, cut in half

Your favorite fresh vegetables for grilling

Extra virgin olive oil

Kosher salt

Method:

Remove all fat and fillet goose breasts into cubes approximately one inch square. Marinade in plastic ziploc bag with enough Teriaki sauce to cover them. Squeeze out air from bag. Let the goose sit in the refrigerator overnight or several hours. I prefer to use the Lite sauce due to much less included sodium. Not really for health reasons, but the regular is just a bit saltier than I like.

Dip half piece of bacon in marinade and wrap around goose chunk. Skewer so that the bacon stays on. Alternate with vegetables of your choice. I use mushrooms, potatoes, cherry tomatoes, various colored peppers, zucchini, onions, or whatever I have a taste for or whatever is ready in my garden. Use whatever you like. There are no rules. Experiment. I have even used pineapples and occasionally jalapenos. Sprinkle vegetables with salt and baste with olive oil.

Using two skewers on each kabob will prevent the food from spinning on the skewer when you turn them.

Grill over medium heat for 15-25 minutes. Overcooking will ruin the meat. Rare is what you want. If you want your bacon a bit crispy, baste with remaining teriaki sauce about 5 minutes before the food is done and turn the heat up if using a gas grill. You may also microwave the bacon for a minute before wrapping it around the goose. Have a water bottle handy for flare ups. I usually serve the kabobs on a bed of wild rice.

The preceding and following recipes work equally well on blue geese and snow geese.

Ingredients:

For goose:

6-8 goose breasts

One cup honey

4 tablespoons butter

1/4 cup apple cider

Seasoned salt

For water pan:

Bottle red wine (your choice dry or sweet)

Remaining gallon of apple cider

Small handful of whole cloves

6-8 cinnamon sticks

Hot water

For smoker:

6-8 chunks of fruit wood, about the size of your middle finger, soaked for several hours in water

Cooking spray

Method:

For goose, sprinkle with seasoned salt. Melt butter in saucepan over low heat. Add honey and cider and heat until warm, stirring occasionally. Add goose breasts and coat. Remove the breasts and place in bowl for transport to smoker.

For water pan, combine red wine, cider, cloves, and cinnamon. Fill remaining space with hot water. Check water pan when checking goose and add hot water only if needed. Resist the temptation to open the lid unnecessarily. Open only for basting and turning meat. Every time you open the lid you add another lengthy period of cooking time because the heat builds up slowly. Every time you add water it also slows the cooking time. Such temperature variations also tend to dry the meat.

For smoker, place wet wood chunks around heating element or place around coals so that the chunks smoke slowly. Carefully install filled water pan. Spray grates with cooking spray. If you don't, clean up will be terrible with this recipe.

Heat until water is simmering and place goose breasts on smoker grate. Don't touch it for an hour, then baste breasts quickly. Turn, baste again and recover. Check again in about an hour. Depending on the temperature of your smoker, the breasts may be done in anywhere from 1 1/2 hours to over 2 hours. Meat will shrivel when cooked, and have lovely grate marks singed in. Again, goose should be more rare than not. I usually put the least pretty breast on the top grate for slicing and sampling for doneness. Remove the breasts when done to your liking and wrap with foil to rest and redistribute the internal juices.

I prefer mine cold, sliced thinly against the grain, and served with my homemade horseradish. This is also excellent with a variety of mustards. My Shirley and I like honey mustard or stone ground, but use what you like. Again, experiment. These slices can be put on crackers with cheeses, or even on a roll for a delicious sandwich similar to roast beef.

Many hunters won't eat geese to save their lives. I guarantee these recipes will change their minds. Enjoy!

I’m still working on my friend Jerry the instructor’s shooting package. His model 70 Heavy Varmint is lapped, recrowned, polished, mounted and ready to go. I’m configuring his gun case now. I decided on a Storm 3300 gun case. I own a couple of Pelican 1750 gun cases and have taken them tens of thousands of miles. They are still absolutely perfect besides some battle scars. Storm is the direct competitor to Pelican, or was, anyway, because Pelican recently bought Storm. The cases are very close to each other in construction, but the Storm is just a bit less expensive. Both have lifetime warranties. I thought I would opt for the Storm to save some cash and get to know them a bit better. A Pelican 1750 was opened on one side of my pool table and the Storm 3300 on the other side. This is what I found when I compared the two gun cases:

The Pelican case is much heavier in weight, by almost 6.5 pounds. It weighs almost 26 pounds with nothing but foam in it. It feels much more substantial. The lid does not flex when opened as much as the Storm, which has less thickness all around. But 6 pounds is a lot to carry. Advantage, Storm.

The middle hinges on the Pelican gun case are much more secure and enclosed than on the Storm. Advantage, Pelican.

The Storm has a total of 6 latches. Four in the front and one on either end. The latches are equipped with a center button that is pushed to relieve the tension so the latch can be opened with ease. The Pelican has only four latches, but they are substantially sturdier. They are a two piece design and can also be opened easily. With the combination of the thicker material the Pelican is made out of, and the sturdier latches, I would say overall toughness goes to the Pelican. The older Pelicans had a one piece latch that was a bear to open and close. I’m glad those are gone. Advantage, Pelican.

The carry handle is wide and covered with rubber on the Storm, making it very comfortable to pull. The Pelican handle is a bit sturdier but not very comfortable. Advantage, even.

The dimensions of the cases are almost, but not quite, identical. Advantage, even.

The wheels on both have similar construction and glide smoothly even heavily loaded. Both are absolutely superb. The wheels on my well-worn Pelican cases still spin freely after many trips to states, countries, and continents. Hard to improve on this. Advantage, even.

The Pelican case has thicker material around the padlock holes, and also has metal inserts around the hole. Advantage, Pelican.

The hard plastic sticker meant to be meticulously and permanently affixed to the Storm case was put on crooked. Lack of attention by one single monkey pretty much set the tone against Storm. Would you buy a new car with the dealer sticker pasted crooked and with wrinkles in it? It’s only aesthetics, but my friend is paying a lot of money for a lifetime case. It should appear as a $200.00 case, not something just slapped together. Terrible, terrible. This alone could be a deal breaker for many, not just compulsives like me.

Now here’s the real deal breaker with the Storm case. I usually put my guns in a case so the right side of the stock is up, with the muzzle to the right, and the butt stock an inch away from the left inside edge of the case. Most of the guns I travel with have a serial number on the right side of the gun. When getting checked in by airport TSA, the easier it is to pass through expediently, the better. If your gun doesn’t have to come out of the case, better still. When your gun is in the case like just described, the heaviest part of the case is on your left. With a Pelican case, the carry handle is on the muzzle end. Therefore, the heavy part of your gun (and whatever other heavy equipment you’ve included) is over the wheels. Like my Grandpa the carpenter said, "Let the saw do the work." The analogy translates to: let the wheels do the work. Why have the heavy part close to the handle where you have to use arm strength to muscle it around? Answer. Don’t. It’s stupid. The Storm case has the carry handle on the opposite side as the Pelican, the wrong side, at least when I put my gun in the way I like. This was the ultimate reason I returned my Storm and bought another Pelican 1750. If you don't care how your gun is positioned inside the case, this is a moot point.

Conclusions: The Pelican has the carry handle on the correct side for a weight-down carry. This is critical to me. If both cases had the handle in the proper place for me, and the Storm case didn’t have the stupid sticker on crooked, I would have bought the Storm for my friend Jerry because it’s lighter. By quite a bit. Not as sturdy, but Jerry isn’t traveling the world, he just wanted a good case. The Storm 3300 is not a good case, but an excellent one, and a bit less expensive. I don’t think it is as sturdy as the Pelican 1750, but I wouldn’t expect any issues with any hard use of any kind. Since I never know what to expect on whatever trip I’m on, I will opt for the Pelican cases, the same ones I have always relied on. Simply put, the Pelican 1750 case is the best gun case for a hard use traveler I have ever seen. You only have to pay for it once. The warranty is “You break it, we replace it, forever!” A tongue in cheek caveat to that warranty is “except for shark attack and children under three.” Funny.

The first thing to know about purchasing any laser rangefinder is that the maximum ranges listed for a particular unit are for use with large, smooth, reflective targets under ideal atmospheric conditions, which means cloudy and clear. You may get a reading of 1000 yards off a light colored building, but only be able to read a tree or a deer at half that distance or less, and a flag on the green at a couple hundred yards maximum. Golf rangefinders are first priority rangefinders, meaning that they read the closer of two objects in the aiming area.

The Bushnell Pinseeker is my favorite golfing rangefinder for many reasons. The first reason is that it offers a bright, clear picture. Many rangefinders start off in the negative column because they don’t even let you see clearly enough. The Pinseeker also has 7x magnification. This means that the objects you are looking at seem 7 times closer than what your unaided eye sees. This is an appropriate amount of magnification for a laser rangefinder that has the capabilities of ranging up to an amazing 1600 yards on large, reflective surfaces under ideal atmospheric conditions. It will also range a tree at 1000 yards, and a flag up to 400 yards. Sorry, Tiger, even your best drives won’t go that far. The tremendous ranging capability of the Pinseeker is the second reason it’s my favorite.

The third reason is the reticle, or aiming point. I love it. It is a simple circle that you place around the object you want to range and hit the power button. Your distance is immediately shown in the LCD screen in large, easy to read numbers.

The fourth reason I like the Pinseeker so much is that it is so simple even a duffer like me can use it without thinking about how to work the thing. Some rangefinders have so many electronic options and modes and lines and stuff cluttering up your viewing screen you may think you’re looking through the cockpit of a jet fighter. I don’t pretend to be the sharpest tool in the shed, but simple is better in most cases.

The size of the Bushnell Pinseeker may initially seem like a drawback because it’s a bit larger than others on the market. Wrong. It is a very big plus, with no detriments. The larger size makes it extremely easy to hold on distant targets with both hands. A golf rangefinder is also not something that you will carry on your belt. It stays in your bag. If you need to be dropped off by your ball while your partner takes the cart to his, you can always loop the lanyard around your neck or just carry it. It is not obtrusive.

The Pinseeker option targets the flag only, and not the background. When in the Pinseeker mode and you hit the power button to get a range, a circle will surround the small icon of a pin and flag in the lower left side of your screen. This is telling you that the trees 30 yards behind your flag are not being targeted, but rather just the flag. With the Pinseeker mode off, you can use the scan mode. Hold down the power button and scan the unit and get a constantly changing reading. If, for instance, you are in scan mode and you start from the left of the flag and slowly move it to the right to the flag, your rangefinder may read the woods behind the green and display, say, 90 yards, 89, 88, 87, 86, and then all of a sudden you come to the flag and it reads 60, you know you just positively read the distance to the flag.

The Pinseeker comes with a classy soft case with a magnetic closure and a waist strap, a lanyard for the unit, and easy instructions. Like I said, even I find it easy to use. The Bushnell Pinseeker gets my highest recommendation for a golfing rangefinder. I also recommend getting the model with the “slope” feature if you are not competing in tournaments. The “slope” feature is a digital inclinometer and gives the exact horizontal distance to the ball or flag, and compensates for inclines and declines. Line of sight distance down a steep hill may read 180 yards, whereas the horizontal distance may be 30 yards less. It helps to choose a club more accurately. Beware, the “slope” edition is illegal for tournament use whether in the “slope” mode (which you can turn off) or not. You may not even legally have a “slope” edition in your bag. The Pinseeker without “slope” is the Tournament Edition number 205102. With the “slope” feature it is number 205103.

Bushnell also offers a golf cart mount as an accessory. It is item number 203119. It attaches the rangefinder to your golf cart for easy access, and has a quick release clamp. Another optional accessory is the Push/Pull Cart Mount number 201612. This is an adjustable accessory that inserts into the golf cart umbrella holder and the bottom of any rangefinder with a tripod socket to help steady it. The excellent case that comes with the Pinseeker is also sold separately and will fit any rangefinder regardless of brand. This is number 203120. Any one or more of these accessories may be worthwhile options for your Pinseeker or other rangefinder.
By the way, Sergio Garcia is the spokesperson for the Bushnell laser rangefinders. If it’s good enough for Sergio….

This October I have two elk hunts scheduled. The first one starts at 9500 feet and I expect this hunt to be the most demanding I've ever attempted. I think I may just shoot myself before I go so I won't have to trouble anyone to carry my body back down the mountain. I'm not the perfect physical specimen these days. Not that I ever was. But I take my hunting very seriously, and know I have to get back into shape, so I started working out this weekend. I entertained some friends last Friday, and by Saturday morning the flotsam and jetsam of the wicked and debauched was piled around the game room and spilled into the gun room. My workout session consisted of three trips from downstairs to the recycling bin in the garage with arms full of empty beer bottles. Quite the exertion. Yep, I'm serious about getting in shape.

This obviously had nothing to do with this week's cooking. Country ribs with Maytag blue cheese (you must try this best of all blue cheeses) and apple slices (fruit counts for good, right?), grilled pork chops with a fiery Jamaican rub, chicken pot pie with real cream, and chocolate cake and other health foods, too.

I did take a walk with Rad with the intention of losing an ounce or two. I doubt it took because when we go out he carries my beer and I eat peanuts. So I probably came back a bit heavier.

Reticles, Red Dots, and Lasers training is coming up this Wednesday. All the troops here are invited. If we head off a few questions a day and make the sales agents more familiar and comfortable with products, then both we and the customers win.

In Riflescopes 101 class the other day I impressed upon the students the importance of safe gun handling. Most of these folks have never had any experience with firearms. Some have never been in the same room with a gun. I listed my credentials that give me the authority to handle guns in the classroom venue, and also gave real-world demonstrations about safe gun handling.

As a very small boy I was taught never to point a gun at anything I didn't want to shoot. If I ever pointed even a toy gun at our bird dog or my brothers (curious, always in that order) I couldn't go hunting with Dad on the weekends. This was the worst punishment ever in fall and winter when seasons were open. For the rest of the year my punishment was to be grounded off the motorcycles. That was almost as bad. Not that I didn't get spanked...I certainly did. And deserved it. It just didn't make that much of a difference.

I learned from a young age about guns and hunting. Bird scent and gunpowder have been in my nose since I was born. There are funny pictures of my Dad holding pheasants over my head in my crib just after birth, with his favorite old humpback Browning crooked in his arm. I consider myself one of the lucky ones.

Inner city kids today will probably never get to their grandparent's farm to milk cows or gather eggs or get chiggers or run from a brahma bull or fish in a farm pond for snappers and bluegulls as big as dinner plates. They won't make butter or ice cream or run over a copperhead with their bike. Sad. Progress doesn't always make things better.

In my next class I'll teach about reticles, red dots, and lasers.

The puppy in the picture is an eight week old Radical Lee von Dundee, my best friend.

Our annual training classes started again with Binoculars 101 taught by Jne. Great class taught by a true expert. The next class is Riflescopes 101. I have to prepare some guns and vises and tools, and cases to carry it all in. I opened my downstairs closet to choose a few cases. Fred Flintstone must've packed it the last time, because when I opened it some Pelicans swooped out and attacked me. I have a couple of the superb Pelican 1750 gun cases that have been on different hunts in countries and continents. I rely on them when hard use is a certainty. This year for a couple elk hunts I plan to mail them to my destinations in Idaho and Colorado. I trust UPS more than I trust baggage handlers.

Otherwise, business as usual. Been fixing a couple guns for friends. Repaired a major plumbing problem in my house. My freezer went down and I lost ALL MY GAME MEAT including my waterfowl and upland birds and my fish, including my salmon eggs for bait. I replaced the unit with a new one. There's nothing quite like scooping up rancid semi-coagulated blood with a dustpan. On the way out the garage last week my garage door broke. Fixed it. Then my heat pump went out. Took a day off and replaced that yesterday. My good friend Daryl came in from Norway for a few days and I enjoyed some shenanigans with him. Congratulations to him and his lovely woman Turid with their first pregnancy. Volunteer food packaging at the church coming up. Fixed some solar lights for My Shirley. Smoked a big ham for Easter with all the fixin's. Shot some guns. Lots of other stuff I've forgotten about in the last week or two. Sometimes my mind is like a steel sieve. Spring is finally here. Took the hog to work today for the first time this year. Ran great in the 60 degree weather. Lots more miles to come. Rubber side down, and watch for people that try to kill you.

Jerry and I have been friends for about 20 years. He is a quality human being and one of the nicest men that My Shirley and I have ever had the privelege to know. He is a fellow NRA certified instructor, and teaches basic pistolcraft for up to three students at a time several times a week at our local range. He's also my hunting partner, and as a matter of fact, saw my current dog's first point before I did. Radical Lee von Dundee loves Jerry. We've also slayed a lot of Canadas together.

Jerry has taken some time off from the trap range and has a bug to shoot some rifles. He bought a Winchester model 70 Heavy Stainless Varmint in 22-250 about 15 years ago and never used it. He has tasked me with assembling a complete shooting package for him with target and prairie dogs being the main use, and coyotes second. This is a giant heavy barrelled gun of almost 11 pounds with a push-feed action and substantial fiberglass stock. The trigger is heavy but clean. I may lighten it or replace it. I disassembled the gun and cleaned and lubed it, polished any rough edges, removed some rust from the magazine box and ran some lapping compound through the bore. I don't do too much polishing in a new bore, generally. I like to see how the gun shoots first. No tools are required to disassemble the bolt in a model 70, and I cleaned off the gummy old lube from inside it and replaced it with powdered graphite that won't get chewy in extreme cold. I do this with most of my bolts.

There were money constraints, as well, like usual. I started with Burris 2 piece steel XTB bases and locktited them in like I always do. For rings I chose Burris 30mm XTR rings, as well as a Picatinny ring top so he could later install a laser, mini red dot, or flashlight if he wanted. This could be very useful for quick, in-your-face shots when a high-magnification scope is the only other sighting option. The rings were chosen after the scope, of course, and after a lot of consideration I chose a Vortex Viper 6.5-20x50 with side focus and the new BDC reticle. This reticle is new for 2009 and is not even available yet, but Joe Hamilton from Vortex had one from a small sample batch he received for testing. Cool. The Viper riflescopes are underapreciated and a best buy in a quality scope with excellent glass and performance. The power ring is as smooth as you can get, and the audible and tactile windage and elevation adjustments are repeatable and crisp. There is an excellent zero-reset feature on the turrets, as well. Just pull the turret up when you're sighted in and reset to zero without a wrench. I also wanted a 50mm objective lens because this is certainly not a carry gun anyway (or at least I don't want to carry it any way) and the bigger glass translates to a larger exit pupil.

I also have to choose for him a rangefinder and bipod. More work to do, and I'll keep you informed as we progress.

A customer asked for advice in the forum the other day, and I thought it might help a few folks with the same quandry:

"Hi,

I am seeking advice as to what type of scope to mount on my .22 Browning Buckmark Contour. I will primarily be using it for both indoor and outdoor target shooting. The Buckmark has a 5” barrel and overall is 9.5” long. My budget is approx $200. I’ve read and have been advised that a 2X optical scope is good for my application. I’ve also read that a red-dot is good for .22s. My question lies mainly in that I’ve not found a pistol or rimfire optical scope that is around 7” long that will not be too long for my pistol. Most red-dots, if not all, seem like they will fit without any difficulty. Can someone please steer me in the right direction? Right now I’m leaning towards a Nikon VSD, a Sightron 1x33 and an UltraDot 4 dot or MatchDot.

Thanks in advance for your help."

I responded:

Most people, using the most popular definition of target shooting, have more fun with a red dot. These folks are not going to get the smallest groups possible from their accurate guns. This is not from lack of magnification, but from the fact that red dots cover more target area than a crosshair. The area that is covered by whatever kind of reticle (red dot or crosshair) is called subtension. Reticles in a magnified scope will almost always have significantly less subtension than a red dot, and the higher the magnification the lower the subtension. The lower the subtension the more precisely you may place your shot. Pistols like your excellent Buckmark may be capable of shooting groups of a half inch or so at 25 yards with ammo that the gun likes. This group size is almost impossible to realize with a red dot that may cover an area two or more times that size, with a fuzzy, non-discernable aiming point. So you will never realize the potential accuracy from your gun.

That being said, magnified pistol scopes are not quick nor necessarily easy to use, with the more magnification you have and smaller field of view making it decidedly harder to find your target and hold steady on it. If you choose to go this way, size doesn't have a lot to do with it except for how you think it looks asthetically. Red dots are like looking through a piece of glass with a bright red spot on it. Easy. Quick. Fun. Small. Wide field of view. For plinking at the range when group size is not paramount, teaching new shooters, putting holes in cans, and all around enjoyment, a red dot is hard to beat.

The red dot examples you provided are fine for plinking, and almost any quality or price over the very cheapest will suffice for a rimfire. Don't overlook the Tasco ProPoints which have been favorites of mine for years. For a short 2x scope this Swift pistol scope is fine, but a larger scope with variable magnification like this Bushnell Trophy makes the gun a lot more versatile, and at higher power will certainly let you see how small of a group you and your gun can shoot.

Decide how your optic will help enhance your favorite type of shooting, and have fun with your fine firearm.

Aim Hard!
