    On occassions like that you simply need to ask yourself what you are hunting for. If the answer is meat then ...........
    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

    Nah I lie. I actually saw the big buck, swung around, bolt closed, crosshairs on the neck about to squeeze one off and it moves in a blink of an eye into the dense bush. Then I told myself it would be better off left for the roar!
