    Two of us figured out you can play Golf with a .204 but the short smarter person showed you can also play with a 300 WSM .
    It was a WideShortMidget. Always wondered what that WSM stuff meant Ya learn shit every day

    Other best thing is Golf actually is very cool. One shot game done @30calterry @Carpe Diem @shift14

    Was the midget there Happy? I can't see him in the photos but admittedly the grass is quite long.

    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

    And to say he shoots them bloody well is a massive understatement. Just ask his golf ball

    If my missus didn’t loose so many of the fkn things ( used to play off a 10 or 12 handicap at school, but those days are long gone !!) I’d be able to help with a few more to explode with the .204 !!

    Till next time...
