Thread: Another Hunter Killed

What are we doing wrong with our training of people in the use of firearms??

My young fella and his cobber both have just sat their firearms tickets...should this include a HUNT's course..should everyone be taken out into the scrub with an instructor and shown how to clearly identify their bloody target not sound not movement not colour? MAKE BLOODY SURE!!! Should they also be taken to a range to be taught how to safely handle a firearm and made to sit down at a range and shoot of a shit load of ammo to get the 'Rambo" (all new and exciting) urge out of em. I have done these things with both my lad and his mate.... The one thing I drilled into them is you CANNOT PUT THE BULLET BACK IN THE GUN!!

I'm not bloody perfect but come on people this is not acceptable!! We as a hunting community have to do a shit load better and do it NOW.
