Pulled my gear out for the trip coming up and realized I had neglected to add "have waist of hunting pants altered" to my already long list

Wait 'til you whipper snappers get to my age.
I gain weight if I just watch a pizza advertisement on TV, or drive past any BB-Q place.

Just put on the wool pants I have worn for the last couple of years and I was VERY close to that. A few months ago I would have been in trouble...

I was so fat and in bad shape a few years ago that I used to get out of breath from watching sports on TV!

He said altered ... he did not day let out ... it is possible that he hot in better shape, lost weight, and had to take them in.

True, but we are all men. We don't get pants taken in, if we lose weight we just cinch our belts up and let the pants scrunch.

I live a cautionary tale: I actually have been working out but I have also been on a "see-food" diet lol. Been enjoying a nice Barolo at the local Italian restaurant too...sigh shows diet is indeed as important as exercise.

Very true.... and the older I get the more important both eating right and exercising have become. I can't just do one or the other anymore. I have to do both. At least hunting in the mountains gives me a goal!

My father is 73. He isn't much of a hunter, but he still hikes to the top of 14,000 foot peaks in Colorado for the fun of it. Right now he is in better shape than I am!

Body builders say that staying lean is 75% what you don't eat and 25% pumping iron like a mad man.
At 61, neither of those sound like much fun to me.
But, I still have my V shaped physique ... it's just upside down these days.

Just wanted to say thanks for the excellent customer service. Ordered some 9.3x62 brass and the delivery was a little short. An email through your website Contact Us link was replied to the next day with the tracking info for the correction. Good pricing coupled with great customer service will see returning customers every time. Thanks again!
