    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

    Saw hard antler in some 6 point Sika stags yesterday

    Very healthy animals this year

    Couple of large sika I’m watching will get to pass on there genes then they might be in trouble

    The more experience you get with Sika the more the info will make sense and add value to your skill set

    The three stags I shot over the weekend were virtually full hard. The biggest one was in prime condition but had an ugly 7-pt head so was happy to take him out.
