Biggrin Favorite Sports Hobbie??

I am a Keen Fisherman and belong to a Fishing club called WSAC

Wellington Surfcasting and Angling Club

Only into Surfcasting and Landbase Fishing, it's harder. More of a Challenge pulling a fat Snapper off the rocks.

Also right into Surfing. Have been doing that since I was about 9

I also play Golf when the Surfs flat. But I get to pissed off easily My best round of Golf at the moment is 89, I've been playing for around 1 year. I just love using the driver and smacking the crap out of the ball. Won the long drive competition at our local driving range 290 Meters It's hard because they don't count the balls that dissapear 10 meters forward and 150 Meters to the side

You mean there is something out there besides cars and trucks!!!!!

Oh yeah, there are my tractors.

I don't have much in the way of time to do much more than work right now. I occassionally fish. When I say occassionally I mean once every couple years. I spend my off hours keeping up with the building maintenance on my farm and maintaining vehicles. Luckily I have the farm rented out so I don't have to worry about the crops.

I do enjoy working on old tractors. I have three, a 1940 Allis Chalmers model "B", a 1941 Farmall "H" and a 1951 John Deere model "B".

When my knees weren't destroyed I used to love playing Ice hockey at the indoor rink. Now all I do is go to wrecking yards and collect car parts to sell on ebay to finance my baby, the Roadrunner. Thank god I live in rust free California where else can you find a '60 el camino almost complete and not rusted out in a wrecking yard with all the important stuff to sell off of it (parting out a chevy to fund a mopar).

I love all kinds of sports! Growing up I played baseball, basketball, football, golf & bowling. I lettered in high school in basketball and baseball. I played college baseball and traveled in a semi-pro baseball league for two years. I'm also an avid bowler (although I've been out for a year due to my father-in-law's passing) and carry between a 211-218 average. I also still play in an adult men's basketball leaugue. I love to golf as well but usually only get to go 5 or 6 times a year due to my kids still being so young.

Hey I sound like I'm making one of those dating tapes or something . . . I enjoy long walks on the beach . . . . . . . . .

Beside racing there's nothing else to do. Oh, wait, I like to target practice and hunt a little too. Nothing like punching holes in paper with a .357 magnum or .45 or even a modle 700 at 200 yds. out. I have qualified as marksman before and last time out I qualified with a 95 score with the .45 I carry every day.

Hmm other than cars, I like Sea-dooin, been dooin it for a coup0le years now, I have 2 a 93 Polaris 650 and a 99 XPL, it's soo much fun, I also have a Ski-doo, it's a 77 Polaris TX, with a 440 free air bombadier motor, big carbs and chrome everything, and a backwards yamaha track, it does 92 mph in 400 feet, with the skies in the air, it's not great in the trails, cuz it slides when you're on the brake, but it tends to really suprise the guys on their hotroded newer sleds.

I also like to fish, especially eels, I go out in a canoe and spend all day catchin em, once I cought one it was about 8 feet long, it took me 6 hours to pull him out of the water, I was thinkin about keepin him but there's no way he was going into my canoe, I let him go, I've heard of a 20 foot+ one in the river where I fish, course, I think he could break the 90lbs test I use

Other than that, it's cars and drinkin, course not at the same time, unless it's a bush car, hehe

Well- le'me see, Summer time is boating,( springtime at the landing watching people get the cobwebs out is an afternoon in itself) SCUBA, tubing, skiing, and rafting when the bug hits. Sometime with the rifles and trapshooting is always fun- and tomorrow my S&W1911 and Ruger Super Redhawk should be here,( Happy Birthday to me, Happy birthday to me )-just in time for deer season. Which brings up the nudie bar- that may or may not qualify for a hobby Getting older ya know Winter time the models come out- otherwise I'm inside till the geese show up. BRRRRRRRR

Besides cars, I also enjoy basketball, football, and baseball. Aside from that, I also enjoy playing video games---don't laugh. Currently I own a Gamecube, a Playstation 2, a Sega Dreamcast, a Sega Saturn, and a NEC Turbo Duo. I mostly have all these systems not to play them-but to collect classic systems. I have a life, though.

When I'm not camping, teaching my scouts, I'm either shooting my guns or playing video games.
