1.) Hunter - 04/28/2014
With the last weekend of turkey season upon us, the wife decided she wanted to try and shoot a turkey. Not having handled a gun in over 30 years, we spent Sat. afternoon at the gun range practicing how to handle a shotgun and how to shoot from a low sitting position. Next we discussed som turkey hunting basics, none of which are her strong suits such as sitting still and not talking. :bang:

We headed out early and with me sitting behind her, whispering instructions to her while calling, we had a couple of close calls but no shot opportunity. We made one final move and lo and behold, the improbable happened!

You're a brave man posting that right after her demonstrating that she knows how to use a shotgun. :wink

Kudos to her. Very nice bird.
