    I was a spook too last saturday - mid/late morning, thought finding a deer was a lost cause by that stage so stopped concentrating properly on being quiet... 2 minutes later one crashes off through the bush about 30m away. Amateur mistake!

    I was concentrating on some parries and not paying attention to the obvious. Mean to see though and I know where he is.

    That bush line looks excellent CD
    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

    Fucking parries. Always in the wrong place.
    The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds
