Younggun's First Hunting Day

[younggun 0]

Hi mates, this is Younggun. On the very first day I went out hunting, it was with the Hounds and I was only about eight or nine, I was nervous, naturally, as I did not have a clue what to expect. The first stop of the day was at my great Uncle's farm, he nicknames 'the mountain'. It's made of about four or five fields and there is two different parts of heather in the middle. The guns where arranged to cover both the sectors of cover, me and my Dad (Terryorr, on the site) went to the very bottom of the farm - at the very end of both sectors of cover...The howling of the hounds started and then adrenaline began to pump. It was no longer than about five minutes until a big red boy appeared and suddenly disappeared as my Dad took it out with one shot. Two minutes later when the Hounds stoped and we all regrouped back at the farmyard, by which time, I had calmed down a bit, but not much. I was a very proud and happy kid that evening!

well done mate you never forget your first day out , best of luck in at more hunt's , i am 32 and i still shake when the hounds are at fully cry and your just wait for him to show, my young lad started shooting at 6, he had his own gun at 7 (.410 over/ under) and shooting clay's with me last season he shot duck's with me and shot 3 teal , we all start at one stage and build up to bigger stages of hunting and shooting so keep at it mate,

my lad
