    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

    Cheer's Guys ! My storey was probably a bit vague, Just reread it and it makes it sound a bit easy What can I say, I had luck on my side I guess, Move slow, Few paces then stop, Kept the wind in our face, as little noise from us as possible, Just wait and listen, Move a bit more .. There was a lot of yeah ha's and woo hoo's thrown in there after too haha plus sore shoulders from the carry out (not used to the 80 extra pounds on my back), So stoked though, Really really happy, Love the bush hunting, You cant beat getting so close to an animal in there.

    We all do starting out. It was a year between first stepping foot on public land with a rifle and me getting my first. Every second of it was time well spent. It is true what they say though, it's a lot easier from now on! The freezer is in much better shape this year than it was last.

    Keep it up bro

    To be a Human is to be an Alien, ask the animals, We invade this world and we are killing it, we are destroying the earth and nobody gives a fuck except for the animals
