    Great yarn Nathan. Looks like the young fella is turning into a great hunter, with a dad like you I’m not surprised.
    Sons are great company aye, mine announced recently, ‘I’m going to head shoot that stag at 260 yards with the 300 RUM’. I thought that was a bit unnecessary, but he did it anyway! I shot its mate through the shoulder. Seemed like the right thing to do. :-)

    Craig's lad (My GS) is pest contracting so on a rifle most of the time, so he should be able to shoot. God I wish I was still 19 and as fit as he is. Better still to be your lad's age with everything in front of him. Lucky boy having a Dad nudging him in the right direction... you are doing good work.
