Range Day....

Hi there everyone, wanted to share a few photos with you guys from yesterday when we went out to test out a few new weapon options.... All I can say is that I do NOT like the feel of the Smith & Wesson .45 that we shot, the trigger on that thing drove me insane! Give me my Glock...

Anyways, it was fun none the less being able to go out and shoot again... I hadn't shot a shotgun in years and it showed, for some reason I stick my hips out all stupid, but I hope that it's a habit I can quickly fix. I believe that some of that may be happening because I need to build more upper body strength, and with that strength will come better form on the shotgun. We will see.

Today after lunch I was out in the Nat. Forest and saw a Momma Bear and her Cub, he was a late cub and was just as cute as a button! When they saw the truck they headed out of the roadway and the little guy thought it would be best to climb a tree, he made it about halfway up and then came down like a sack of potatoes... I felt bad for the little guy but it was so cute! Unfortunately I didn't have my Nikon with me, I could've had some great shots. :( The salmon are running and the Bear are everywhere in preparation for hibernation, in the next few days I hope to get out into the brush with Off. Wallace and get some nice shots down by the rivers. I am also hoping to catch a nice big Salmon so that I can get a photo of these things for you guys... they are so big!

Hey Girl... the story about the bear cub I can just picture it. Sounds hilarious! lol. I see what you are saying about your hips when shooting the shotgun. I'm sure you can get out of the habit and have a better form. Oh yea... like the hat... Go Buckeyes! lol right??
