I think I remember my first time shooting a gun. I can't remeber exact age, I just know me and dad were dove hunting and he let me shoot his 12 gauge into a hay bail to see how it felt. That damn gun left a bruise on my arm from the shoulder to the elbow!!! After that I got his hand me down 270 rifle for deer hunting. It is still a nice gun.

And now I have a couple of my own. But I will never forget shooting that damn shot gun, and trying not to cry in front of him! IT HURT!!!
