    My wife has come out on a few hunts with me, doesnt mind doing the big days on the hill (was in the nz mixed touch rugby team so fitness never an issue). Had a busy start to the year with her getting her first bull tahr and first chamois which kept her smiling for a while, she has managed to get to 20m from chamois sneaking through the grass for photos. Her longest shot on an animal is neck shot from 316 yards (told me she was going for the neck too) got some video I keep meaning to put up but havent got around to editing it. Quite into the bird hunting and not too bad with the shotgun either.

    Legend!
    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
