she aint startin off..i broke her on a bb gun when she was 3...a 22 at 5y/o, when she turned 7 i put her behind a 223...she's been die hard hunter ever since. all does, i dont want her nailin a big buck til she pays her dues..now she is 12....she ate tag soup this year, she didnt wanna put in the time, so..well you know. I think this year she'll understand when i tell her its time to "put in the time"...be a whole new meaning vs what she thought it meant last year lol
anyway, she is an excellent shot, and she is proud of it...she wants ta get out to 250 yards, and well to be honest i wanna put her behind somethin a lil heavier, but has good ballistics.
