    Shadow with result from Saturday, he's always happy when he gets to retrieve something , in this case a single & his first double .
    Taken a while to get him to do it & thinks he's so bloody clever now.

    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    father-daughter bonding

    My son was on a Duke of Edinburgh tramp, so my daughter pleaded to go and shoot something at the farm. The bunnies were too flighty for her, so I dispatched a few myself and then we went looking for dumb as plovers. Since there was no wind, she shot 3 at 80m before the 4th one decided to get out of dodge. She was excited to get home and tell mom.

    yep, normally she's a girlie girl but everyonce in a while likes to get mucky with the lads. I have a firearm, a shovel and an alibi.

    Well done Scottrods.
    There are only three types of people in this world. Those that can count, and those that can't!
