I mounted a scope on my new to me 7 mm TCU barrel and while I wasn't looking some DAMN yayhoo done snuck in and added wobble to a pair of hands that only yesterday could hold my .45 at arms length ,for an hour with a glass of water balanced on the front sight and never spill a drop. Now the sight picture ,if you can call it that ,would make a sailor heave over the rail. Don't know who done it but I'm damned mad at him or her.

Maybe it was just too much coffee... This will most definitely do it! If I know I'm going to be shot'n, I don't drink coffee that morning. It makes a big difference.
It takes 43 muscles to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger squeeze.

Yup, me too. I first noticed it when I was out trapping hawks a couple years back. Didn't have coffee that morning, and could see the hawks through the binoculars MUCH better since I wasn't shaking!

Don't drink coffee so can't blame it on that mostly flavered water.Don't drink enough alcohol in five years to drown a worm so it ain't that. I think its that old rascal father time stealing things from me,he must be a tree hugger!

Ya, father time, just adds a whole new meaning to "timing your shot". Trigger pull used to be timed on a horizontal plane, father time changes that to a circular pattern at times.

I blame it on raising two teenage girls. Coffee and moonshine are just coping mechanisms.
Lead, push or get the heck out of the way!

Father Time and Mother Nature are in cahoots with one another, he takes away our abilities and she feeds the varmits and deer speed and caffine so they can't and won't stand still like they should. I don't want to even get started with the Wind gods.I tell ya it just ain't fair! Ya figger out how to put lights and a chrome bumper on a bullet it would never miss though,no matter how hard you tried.

If it were supposed to be easy, they'd have sent my little sister to do it.
