We had quite the day today in that we finalized our new house in Arizona today. Then I sat outside and made up a few bandsets and tried to relax... lol. Not happening 
So I went out into the desert with my bucket full of slings and really just shot my new ProShot ZDP2 to try it out with one of the 3 bandsets that Court215 sent with them. Man, this is a great little pocket shooter and the bands shot great with 1/4 up to 3/8 steel ammo. I tried 7/16 steel on it also but it started dropping hard at about 45 feet, but the 1/4 and 3/8" ammo was dead on. It has a 4-1/2" fork width, which is perfect for me and I was able to use the indentation in the band tying groove for perfect shot placement from the beginning. I lost count on how many times that I hit the can in a row. I tossed the can on the ground and just shot it farther down the trail each time until dark this evening. Heck, I tied the bands on this way pictured to try it, next time I'll reverse them and I'll tie them on the other. I don't know which way will be the most comfortable, but it sure works and feels great.
He also sent me the Pocket Predator Taurus, but I have found that I need to learn to shoot them one at a time for the best results and I took it out a few days back for a little outing and it proved itself right off the bat. My plan is to put some wide bands on the Taurus and try to break some of my speed tests with it and then see how far I can take it, but for now, I have it banded with the .7 Simpleshot Black Bands
We came back to Arizona about the 1st of November and I saw a house for sale and knew that was going to be ours. Then took Karen over there the next day and she said, No Way! Well, we finally went for a tour yesterday and after touring a couple of houses, she was done. I couldn't believe that it was still on the market, but when things are meant to be, there's no stopping God's plans... We met the owners and everything felt perfect, you know that feeling
The owners told us last night and the realtor finalized it with them this afternoon... Once again, we have a home after being in a trailer and traveling for the last 4 years now.
What was my first thought when I walked in?
There's going to be a nice new shooting range in my back yard, I'm estimating 75 feet but the actual measurements will have to wait
