zini 1,939 Posted January 9, 2010 Report Share Posted January 9, 2010 (edited) Hi all, The weather was terrible today again up in North Yorkshire and i thought that id be home grounded all day . Luckily the weather had a window of normality for a short period so i decided to take my boy out again to teach him some more about air rifle shooting and hunting. He is coming on really well now and i was proud last week when he hit his first 30 metres spinner with my rifle from the bipod. Not bad for a 9 year old hey? Anyway the feather was out in its abundance again and i had a good few hours shooting and filming with the scope camera for the new DVD whilst teaching Dylan (my boy) about range estimation and the use of mil dots to ranges. Here is the picture from what we managed. The footage ill save for later. Zini Edited January 9, 2010 by zini Quote Link to post

sibaldib 6 Posted January 10, 2010 Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 Nice bag Si and great news that your son is coming along well. My lads were shooting when they were 11 or 12 and although they haven't continued it on, it has taught them a valauble lesson in gun safety etc. Cheers Sib Quote Link to post

zini 1,939 Posted January 10, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 Thanks everyone for the kind comments Hi Davy pal, Dylan is almost better than me now mate Definitely a lot keener than i am and he's only 9. He wakes me up every weekend telling me he wants to go hunting or there is a crow in our trees etc that needs shooting. I try to ignore him but then think "CROW" and have to get up to attend to business LOL. Best regards Si Quote Link to post
