Good post about "starters"

I did a scratch post about starters, safety, and accuracy way back some months here on a FR thread

Like most things the best thing is to start really young and learn from experience shooters and hunters

Small caliber

Target practice

Night hunt rabbits in tall pasture grass without nailing your buddies, the horses, or the Brahmas

It becomes instinctive

Like fastpitch softball or football

Aiming is automatic and accuracy expected

It made those night firing exercises at Jackson easy and helped train others to survive

Interesting how many of those books and articles are so similiar
Coop has some good stuff out there too

But solid experience over time is the real deal

Handgun draws are a whole other thing

Some can get off several well placed shots as their arm comes up

Be careful learning that

Got so I never hunted small game in daylight; no challenge and too easy

Don't miss those military rifles a bit

Colts mostly now, early vintages

Golden oldies in more ways then one

Safe shooting gang

Some good deer hunting in the NC Smoky Mountains

Gut 'em and hang 'em quick

I do prefer antelope for taste, overnight in wine first

Planning on going after boar in WNC/TN

Mean suckers!

Also tear up the forests

Don't forget to teach your kids

They will need it

Are you advocating this...............

That we should teach our children about guns? Won't they just get hurt if they know about them??

Just look at her; she doesn't even know that her finger should be on the trigger.

Ask California's Diane Frankenstien..........she knows what is best for the children.
