Thread: Orakis duckshooting eyeopener

Picked up a new to me gun the other day, and thought I should try it out. Oraki jnr thought he should be having a crack as well. 25 clays, 35 shots between the 2 of us. Last 10 were 3's.
Jnr started off 4/5, me 3/5. Then the banter started. 'Come on old man. Do ya need glasses' etc.
So then it's my turn again5/5, jnr 2/5 followed by 4/5, another perfect by me,using 3s.
Jnrs last round on 3s resulted in 2/5. Noticed a couple of clays when picking them up had been hit, but not broken. The old man claimed them as well.
So we've got our eyes in tune, roll on opening.

He might get on better shooting from the right side!

Especially as it is just........ well............ Ummm......... right!

The boy was against me getting it, he wanted me to get a new camo one about the same price.......until he put a couple of shots through it. Then he thought it should be his.
Once I sorted out where it shot, it's a beautiful thing. Comes to the shoulder nice, the eye is straight on target, and the softest shooting shotgun I've shot.
Thanks @Mathias for putting me onto it. It's a keeper, hand down to the next generation gun

what is it

Browning Gold Hunter. 3 1/2 Big step up from the Stoeger

15 in a couple of weeks. He's got the tall gene, and bloody size 13 feet to go with it.

Sounds like my 16yr old, 6ft & size 12. Be looking down on me soon Good that the boy is a keen shooter.
Pleased the Browning has gone to a really good home

He's been looking down on me for a while now.
Keen shooter..... 3 yr ago he was keen, now he's obsessed. Spends a couple if hours every day on the callers. Duck, Parrie and Goose, and although it drives us nuts, he's pretty good on them. The electronic caller will only be used when he's getting his breath back. He's going up to Nelson for the calling competition to support his mate, and to see what's required for the next one.
There's a thing doing the rounds, introduce your kids to hunting, and they can't afford drugs or alcohol

Or another saying my mate uses if you get them into court it will keep them out of court

fukn edit thing wont work get them into sport it will keep them out of court
