Hey cupcake....its great form....for a smaller rifle like you have...have fun with it....We need to get you into a 12 gauge Turkey Load 3 1/2 inchbullet and let you give it a go. Needless to say. Very impressive! I have enjoyed reading the conversations about your first forehead experience...

I have had a handful myself. But with mine I broke the skin....[:@]

How good are you with the bow??
Thanks. Ive shot a 12ga but ill be darned if i didnt even hit the beer can.....now THATS talent!

Honestly, I havent picked a bow up in 10 years. I used to do archery tournaments when i was 6-10yrs of age. Havent touched them since... but I WAS good, not great, not bad, but good

So who has the date with her, I'm gettin confused.......

Anyway - I've never gave myself "magnum eye" but I have seen a few of my buddies do it to themselves. One of my buddies did it about 3 years ago when he shot his first buck with a rifle out of my box blind, funny thing was I was laughing at him and he didn't know why. He's like whats so funny, the deer is dead, I'm like your bleeding, then he realized he had blood running down his face! lol

Notice how close my head it... it seemed far away at the time!!!

Lets not discuss how I stand either. Ive been shunned enough

maybe you should check out some LER scopes, cause your eye is about what it should be as far as eye relief, thats all i'm gonna say[&:]

cupcake,

We call that "scope eye" here. I let my wife shoot my 35 Whelen with some souped up hand loads and the reaction after the first shot was not good. This was about 4 years ago and the story gets better every time she tells it. She didn't get scope eye but thought her shoulder popped out of place. LOL

I haven't but was hunting with pops one time, after he took a few shots, he turned around and I saw the blood. That was pretty funny.
