I'm experiencing it right now but also have a serious case of cabin fever. With this 30 degree weather just can't seem to get out there for the cure.  ;D

Good video Yardhunter!! I think you're on to something.

I always wonder what kind of personality it takes to make a video of yourself and post it on a forum?

Weather is running from about 55F to 70F - more than a month early, I'd guess. Lots of shooting going on - what's the fuss? After-all - we're in "The North".

Not here. We just got 3 inches of snow on the ground last night.

He's just having some fun that's all.

It takes a fun personality.
I couldn't talk anyone else to do the video with me.
More importantly….I'm a black powder maniac shooter that's  crazy about shooting BP guns & love every minute of it. I have 50+ other short fun videos using flintlocks & another one on the way.

This is a fun hobby ( to me ) & adding camera usage makes it more entertaining.
Thanks……..see ya yardhunter.

I believe I was experiencing a mild case of this, but took the cure this past Wednesday by getting out to the Range. Now I did almost faint when I hit two bulls'eyes from 50 yards offhand from the outset, but then settled down and opened up the group with some following shots to allow for return trips to the Range in the future... ;D

I have had this hellish disease for quite some time now.  I think I'm  going to have to live with. 
Reply to Candle Snuffer, if you shot nothing but X's you would have nothing to strive for.  Any shot less than a 9 I blow off as a flyer ;) ;) ;)

WOW…If I hit the bullseye twice…i would probably pass out!
I believe you're close to a cure.
Not totally cured…..because one cannot spend too much time on the range.
Good shooting' my friend……..

Chronic sufferer since about 1972,  I need regular holy black fixes to keep it in check,  the outside of a horse is also good for the inside of a man if BP is not available.  :'(
