  • Let me know in the comments if you actually read the description. I'm just curious. I don't think anyone ever reads this. :)
    Well, since you are here and reading this, I'll tell you my favorite dad joke. Ahem - if you ever wondered who loves you more - your wife or your dog - try the following experiment. Lock them both in trunk of your car for 24 hours. When you open it the following day, which is happier to see you?

    It’s been over 12 years now sir, that I’ve been watching your videos. That’s more than half of my life. I remember stumbling across your channel as a kid watching air soft sniper videos and I’m still here. Keep up the great work!

    Man, this was a CLASSIC Ted's Holdover video. You may have a little Grey in the head, but you still have that infectious energy and enthusiasm that got me hooked on your videos well over a decade ago. To this day I attribute my love of small game and even whitetail hunting to your early videos. Thank you so much for still putting out this awesome content.

      I don’t know how many times I’ve walked around trees looking for a squirrel that should be right there. I shot a deer in a plowed field. While getting out of the blind I looked away and had to find him again. When he lost the bird, I understood all too well.

    In response to your dad joke... I trained my dog, I work to provide him food and a roof over his head, I cut his toenails, clean his teeth, etc. If I were to open the trunk after 24 hours, my dog would've been perfectly happy to exist in there with my wife. Heck, the dogs follow her around the house, follow her to the next room when she gets up and smell around the house to find her once they come inside. I don't think my wife nor the dog would be happy when I open the trunk, but if my dog could speak, he'd say, much to my chagrin, "Could you close the trunk again so I can be with my favorite?" My wife would likely say the exact same thing ;)
    Thank you for your videos, I'm unsure exactly what you have that makes you likeable through this screen. But it's special and it's obviously infectious. I hope your real life is full of happiness and growth, thank you for sharing.

    I LOVE those freeze frames just before the pellet impacts with the arrow pointing out the pellet and the "dink" sound effect! When I retire, I plan to get back into whacking starlings and pigeons. I miss all of the fun. Can't do it in the city anymore like when I was a kid because too many whiny neighbors who would call the cops even though it's legal to do here.

    Ted, I watch all the airgun video guys, Dubber Roelf etc. super love yours. I figured out for myself it’s your self deprecating humor. You laugh at yourself regularly. You are very funny. Your pigeon imitation was perfect and had me literally crying I laughed so hard. I can’t wait for the video of squirrel and chipmunk removal. I’m always hoping for more videos from you but as always, family comes first.

    Thanks for the nice video. You can do this also with air rifles of $350/600 as airaccuda, air venturi. Nice to see how these rifles will perform next to each other, $400 againt $2000 There wont be a difference in hitting the target I think. Same with scopes, an Element or a Discovery.
