    Good on you. Be no stopping you now. Might be worth putting some nail varnish on those trigger screws.

    As guides should you not brief them on putting another up it straight after the shot? If not brief them prior to the shot tell them to immediately after? Cant boo hoo them for not knowing what they don't know.

    You can brief people on tons of shit mate. Not just shooting related and it all goes out the window once they are amped.

    Dumb I know, but you also give some clients credit for their experience when you get shown photos and told stories of their exploits.

    We have made a lot of new rules and changes on how we deal with the shooting side of things regarding new clients for this season.
    We get a lot of regulars that we trust.
    We have also started to carry a rifle ourselves which can be a pain in the ass.
