walshie 2,804 Posted May 3, 2016 Report Share Posted May 3, 2016 Congratulations Jimmy. I bet you're made up. I don't see a problem with him being a dog lad and a shooter. People can have 2 hunting sports. Shame one of them will be poofy airguns. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

dogmad riley 1,344 Posted May 3, 2016 Report Share Posted May 3, 2016 Congratulations wishing you and all your family the very best. Take it from me he going to be a dog man. Best sport in the world. He will get into rifles but the dogs always follow and sticks. Once he hears the terrier baying and seeing the lurcher in full flight no air rifle beats that imo 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Hydropotesinermis 724 Posted May 4, 2016 Report Share Posted May 4, 2016 (edited) congratulations... just for some balance. Dogs my arse! get him behind a scope, bullets can outrun a lurcher any day... well maybe not a bullx seriously if it sticks there is a serious amount of skill involved in marksmanship and if he enjoys and follows it who knows? He may end up competing... he doesn't have to stick to air rifles either, he might be rolling over gert red stags by the time he's a teenager! also just imagine his face when he gets his first terrier, firstly terrier pups are f***ing good fun for a boy and secondly that pup will grow up with him. God damn he's got so much ahead of him. makes me wish I was a nipper again. Edited May 4, 2016 by Hydropotesinermis 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
