My Boy is Shooting His First state Youth Trap Shoot

Post by Colonel26 »

Jackson, my oldest (17) has been shooting registered trap for about a month. Today we’re at his first state registered youth trap shoot. Needless to day I’m a pretty proud poppa.

Here’s a pic of all the kids shooting today, and one zoomed in on our squad. Jackson is in the back left wearing the dark red t-shirt.

Yes sir, and some of those young ladies weren’t only pretty, but could shoot the lights out.

I told Jackson and his buddies they ought to be out talking to those girls! I mean a pretty woman is one thing. But a pretty woman who owns and can shoot a $5000 trap gun is a whole nuther level and some of them we shooting those kinds of guns. A man has to prioritize. :mrgreen:

Standing right next to Jackson in the black t-shirt is one of the neighbor boys from across the road. He’s a little leas than a year older than Jackson. We consider him one of ours too. He did real hood today as well.
