What and no Blanton's?
 
Havent had any whiskey since 1975! Drank a mountain man portion of McNaughtons on an empty stomach one afternoon in the summer after helping a neighbor move. :eek: I was so sick:sick: I was afraid I'd live!

In reality I should have gone to the ER, it was that bad.:confused: But in those days, you just passed out, puked all night and had the shakes for 3 days.;) Never again.
 
I personally prefer a Rye but if I'm drinking bourbon I enjoy knob creek. Of course I also prefer #3s my hand doesn't fit well between the pistol grip and under leaver of a #1 so to each his own.
 
Nice! Buffalo Trace for me. However a friend who recently passed away made Town Branch so I always have a bottle on hand in his honor.
 
@PHOENIX PHIL I keep another bottle of Blanton’s up stairs for emergency use!

It's funny how things like that effect you. Fathers best friend left a half finished quart of capt. Morgan in one of our kitchen cabinets when he passed. I believe the only way it will get touched is if he came back to finish it.

5th picture in of the op bottom shelf on the right hand side third bottle back you will see Ancient Age which is what my father drank. Started slipping a little of his bourbon when I was 14 so it’s how I started liking Bourbon. I keep that bottle on hand just in case dad shows up. He passed away in 1995.

We drained a bottle of 23 yr Pappy at a deal closing years back. The banker brought it and it just didn’t feel right to let him take any home...

Solid collection, I'd love to find a number of the ones you have (at least not at secondary market prices). I didn't see any Weller's in your photos, have any? Weller is definitely a favorite of mine, as well as EH Taylor.

Yes sir I have a couple of different Weller’s
 
It kills me. I want to like whiskey so bad but I just can’t do it. All whiskey, bourbon, and scotch makes me violently ill at just the smell. The only thing I can do is Crown and coke but even then it’s gotta be pretty weak. My dad is a big whiskey guy. He’s known for his affection toward Gentleman Jack. I’ve tried soooo many times to acquire a taste but alas, it still makes me nauseous.

Hello,

I saw your post selling left hand rifles. Do you have any additional pics of the .416 Rem mag?

Thank you.
