    Boys first Deer

    Name: image.jpg Views: 574 Size: 205.8 KB

    I took my sons down to the Wairarapa for a hunting trip in the last week of the school holidays, the grin on the 11 year olds face after shooting this hind is pretty easy to spot. He was pretty pumped to get one before his older bro as he normally gets smoked by the older one.

    Check out the ear to ear smile. Classic. Well done.
    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
