    Yeah probably the most tender red I've had In ages, shed definitely been living the good life. Would still have preferred pissed up stag meat though

    Ha Ha!!! I have no idea how I hit her after having a blast without my supressor. At least 6 inches high and right!! Explains why I was a bit dubious of a good hit

    Makes sense about her positioning too. Either way a good result

    May your eye be keen and your reflexes quick Munsey.
    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

    Finally got out for a hunt, first since opening. Having man flu all last week and weekend meant I didn't want to risk being up early, out late and wet and cold.

    Anyway, we chose to do an evening shoot on our pond, rocked up and to our surprise put off over 100 mallards! Not expected!

    Only 6 came back and came home, but also managed 8 parries and two spoonies. What was looking to be a pretty average evening shoot worked out well, with all of these birds being shot in the last 20mins of shooting light.

    Was keen to get the pair of spoonies mounted but one was pretty f**ked up.
    I'm drawn to the mountains and the bush, it's where life is clear, where the world makes the most sense.
