    Well, hello there....

    Hello. I'm WhysItTwitching.
    Absolutely fresh to hunting and firearms. Recently got my FAL and the rifle collection/addiction has begun.
    Got an invite from a Woodhill balot winner recently and that/this will be my first experience hunting.
    Can't bloody wait!
    Thanks for reading. See you around this forum. Cheers.

    Welcome aboard
    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

    Thanks for the advice.
    And, yes, that's the first priority.
