    The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds

    I am staggered that the guide did not have a rifle to assist if needed (which it was in this instance)
    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

    I have no doubt that that was some city idiot with too much money just having got an idea to hunt for the first time but I've done some fucking terrible shooting in my time - not on deer though, when the pressures on I think you're just forced to get the job done haha

    If you haven't missed any deer you haven't shot at any.
