    Just to recap... 258 different projectiles with Tilly and now Bella was confused on the last deer having to work which projectile you were using. Isint Bella pleased she does not have to work out which powder you are using. Aah the story teller back in action. Apt comment about hunting not being dependent on the judgment of others. Mikee had a similar comment recently about pheasant hunting.Nice story bro.

    Bella doesn't get confused because I never discuss calibers, bullets or loads with her and we never discuss what rifle to take. I keep those things from her so that she can just focus on her core tasks.

    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

    Great story and result Tahr. All your hard work of training her correctly is now showing in her ability to work as she does. Good teamwork. Always trust your dog.

    Bloody good on you two Bruce, and people that decry what someone else does, can go take an effing jump. Keep doing what you do.
