New year's resolution

Postby Olly » Sun Dec 30, 2012 12:46 am

What you guys got?

I'm going with cutting back drastically on my cussing. Being in the military I cuss like a sailor and need to cut down.

Back to the gym for the first time since active duty and eating healthy. Hoping to last a couple weeks.

I don't know why but I cut out fast food a few months ago. Didn't even mean too, the shit just started to make me sick.

I'm the same way with fast food just got to the point where I couldn't stand eating it.

Can't say I have any resolutions but big plans for the next year is to whip the pup into shape and see how crazy I can get with reloading. Sureeee, reloading saves you so much money!.....

I actually think juice is one of my bigger problems. I don't drink any of that cocktail shit, only 100%. However, there are a ton of calories in a glass and I probably drink a whole container everyday...the 64oz ones.

A lot of processed juice even labled 100% has extra sugars in it for taste. Some of that V8 juice crap has more sugar than a normal Coke!

I don't drink sodas that often. My drink filled with sugar is sweet tea. I need to cut down a little.

Not sure about mine. Says no sufar added on the label but you never know. Fruit itself has a scary amount of sugar in it. Just need to switch to vegetables I guess.

Easy for a skinny guy to say! Just kidding, I dont know if you are skinny or not. Its always the skinny people saying"heck with diets, I eat what I want"

I will cut down on passing gas at work and on my way to work. Quit cigs altogether. Ive quit with the help of chew before for two years. Consider working three 13hr 20min days at work so I can fart around more during the week.

Resolution? I already am living my life to the best of my ability. I guess continue that would be my resolution.

My list of things I need to change:

Quit shooting 2 3/4" shells,
Trade my Mossberg for a B gun,
Get rid of my $18 DR-85 and get a real duck call,
Trade my $24 a dozen decoys for some Dakotas,
Get rid of Taz and get a REAL retriever,


If I do all this, hopefully next season I can start killing birds!

While i feel you are joking, this is my last year shooting over cartoon decoys. Spending the money on Higdon foam filled and dakotas.

I have also kind of been wanting to upgrade to a more quality decoy. I don't necessarily think it'll change the number of ducks I'll kill, its just as I get older I see the advantage of owning quality items. I also prefer a quality over quantity spread.

I should just repaint my Hot Buy dekes, have been the best I have owned. This is their 9th season and still look good, no paint is gone, only faded. With the extreme low water, I was reminded how awesome the very small keel on them is.
