When a real man is hungry he tracks down an animal, kills it, and rips off its skin and out it's guts. Discuss hunting and display your trophies.
When I was younger my family called me the buck slayer. After I got married my wife's family called me the great white hunter. Now I don't particularly care for it anymore, but I have kids that want to hunt so I go with them. My kids have been shooting since they were three. A couple of years ago the middle child decided he wanted to go hunting. The eldest is only interested in shooting, but the younger two like to go hunting. I rarely even shoot a gun now days. If something needs shot I tell the middle kid to go get his gun and he takes care of it for me.
Today I was walking out back to look at something and I saw some squirrels. Middle kid had been pestering me about wanting to go squirrel hunting so I walked back up to the house and told him to get his shotgun. Yes my children have access to guns, but they probably have more experience with them than most of you reading this. True gun safety is teaching kids how to use a gun and how not to from an early age.
Any one of my kids would have got him on the first shot, and been less fat, and probably would have used more racial slurs.
We had trouble because there are still too many leaves on the trees, but he managed to bag two with his great grandfather's shotgun. That gun has served my family well through the generations. He wants to graduate from small game like squirrels and rabbits and move to deer. He's shot my deer rifle (30-06) no problem so I haven't decided whether to start him on that or the 30-30 lever gun I bought for my first deer rifle as a kid. He want's a 300 win mag, but I'll start him off with something I already have. I should make him get a job to buy the 300 win mag like I did to buy my 30-30.
I'm done rambling. Now it's your turn.
