Shooting Practice

We went to Trout Lake this past weekend. The first evening we were there, Tobin noticed the pesky rock chucks that are literally taking over their property and making holes all over! So he got out the ol' 22 and took one down for the team.


Then I got to shoot a gun for the first time in my life. I have to say my first shot wasn't all that bad, I actually got the bullet somewhere on the target I was aiming at. But holding a gun, aiming, and keeping it steady definitely takes practice! I know I'm not cut out to actually get something that could be moving. Oh well, it was fun anyway. Now, I had a very brief 101 on gun safety too, and that could be useful at some point.
