    Put this photo up on another site, unbelievable positive responses. So proud of her getting her second deer, equally proud of her dad for giving her the opportunity and guidance even though he’s only taken up hunting not so long ago himself. Got to be good. For family bonding.

    Yet another stunning photo! Nice to see young ones spending time in the outdoors, learning where their protein comes from. Well done to friends and family.

    Simply great to see.
    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

    You will be a very happy Great Uncle! My new great niece is only two, but I told her mum last week that I'm sorting out her first rifle now! Can't start them too early, I reckon!

    Great to see not only young guys coming into the sport but also young ladies. This gives our hunting scene not only participation from both sets of young hunters but this is the future of our sport and adds great balance.
    The public think it's all gun toting macho stuff but women and young people show it's a sport for everyone and a board age group.
