your setup and process for shooting a flintlock long gun ...

[Fletcher]

I knew that, but what is the actual tree species?

OBTW - I wish I had a more elaborate story on my Flintlock setup - but it really boils down to:

Grab the possibles bag and Ol' Chickaboom (cause that's what she sounds like) and head for
the hills right out my back gate when the feeling hits me.

Aesculus glabra - OK my web search found that and some pictures of the tree I have never seen.

Also - no my flinter does not shoot itself, but then I don't I don't think a whole picture like you
do to go shooting.  That's fine that you do.  Just for me after many years of training and preparation
I guess it is just second nature.  Certainly no offense to anyone.  I guess I just think simpler.

To me what is offensive is art that does not look like anything, people who do not mean what they say,
rules that were meant to be broken and a government that takes away freedom under the guise that they
are trying to take care of us.

I will try to think harder on that that I have been blessed with - how to take care of it and how to protect
and defend it.

what is this topic is about?  

it's for folks to share in at least reasonable detail what's "second nature" within all of us.  

in doing so, perhaps we'll rethink our shooting process, maybe learn a thing or two from both things we do "unconsciously" (and perhaps take for granted), and perhaps learn from what others are doing.  

all this might lead to making changes in our shooting processes that are for the better.  

is this not what cyber gatherings such as this are at least partially all about?  

i for one never think i know it all and am doing all things "perfectly" - heck, i'm human, i'm imperfect.
