    I think there must be a strong family influence in whether a man becomes a duck shooter or not. No one in my family (grandfather’s and father’s generation) was into it and as a result I have never done it (and nor to my knowledge have any of my brothers or cousins). Mind you, my old man was a “knife over dogs” pig hunter and I have never done that either so maybe the family influence doesn’t always impact.

    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
