Mentalmac Posted November 27, 2013 Report Share Posted November 27, 2013 Hi Guys, Just thought i'd share one of my favorite pics from shooting lately. This is my step daughter doing her new favorite past time - bunny bashing. She's not strong enough for a full on standing shot especially with a heavy hatsan PCP, but in prone or kneeling she's awesome. The thing I like the most is that her girlyness shows by the fact she wanted to lay on a groundsheet whilst awaiting the rabbits. The final score was 2 rabbits to her. Both head shots at 30 yards. (To add, this wasn't her first time shooting and had done lots of paper punching before being let onto live stuff). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul taylor Posted November 27, 2013 Report Share Posted November 27, 2013 Fantastic! Great to see kids being introduced to shooting properly especially good to see another young lady in the shooting family. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mentalmac Posted November 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 27, 2013 cheers guys, She's pretty good (worryingly). Training her up so that when she's 'of age' boyfriends won't have to fear me, they'll fear her more. She loves to shoot and be out in the country and has really perfected her stalking skills - however she does show her age sometimes with the "how long until they come out?" type phrases... but you can excuse that, shes only 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TIGHTCHOKE Posted November 28, 2013 Report Share Posted November 28, 2013 Well done young Lady and to her proud Dad too! Let's hope she continues with the sport, I get a great deal of pleasure from seeing my eldest son shoot well, whether it's on clays, pigeons or game.

Mentalmac Posted November 28, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 28, 2013 Thanks guys, I love and always have loved the fact that this sport actively encourages youngsters. I find it's a really nice way of parent child bonding as well. Especially for me seeing as she's my step kid. My 2 bio kids will hopefully get into shooting one day, but at 2 years old and 6 months old I don't think they are ready yet! haha. On the opposite end of the scale, I have been shooting as a way of getting a better relationship with my dad. on the clay ground and on my perm, it's a good talking point and some good father and son bonding too.
