    I find honing to be very relaxing. Other options include gaming (on my PC), long hot showers, and watching TV. Sometimes writing helps; I have a "professional blog" that I'm required to write in for my graduate program, and I've used that to vent/reflect a bunch.

    Either at the pistol range double tapping targets, or at the bench trying to do one hole groups with one of the rifles... This is relaxing, the Trap range is relaxing until you get in the over 23 range then it gets stressful going for the perfect 25's

    I start these thread with 2 basic motives.
    1) to see if everyone can remain civil no matter their disagreements (This is always my hope)
    2) because I truly enjoy seeing how others think about things and why they think what they think.
    The only thing I like better is face to face conversations as you can learn so much more about human nature.
    I read/contribute to those threads for more or less the same reason. Can't beat a good, slightly under the influence, conversation.

    Not as much fun as double tapping people though. Sorry, just a Law Enforcement Joke.

    I like to get one of my vintage pocketwatches and totally dismantle it and put it back together again.

    - Working on a restoration project in the basement.
    - Practising martial arts.
    - Sitting back with a good book and reading for a day.
