Shooting

I took Ben and Gabe to a shooting range last night. I shot trap for a bit and the boys would explode in excitement when I would hit a clay bird. That was fun. Then we took their new BB gun to the shooting range. This was a hoot. All around in the other booths were high powered rifles and handguns. Then, there was our booth with the spring loaded BB gun! The boys are six and so I am trying to teach them gun safety and some basic shooting skills for hunting in the future. A few months ago I took them to an archery range to shoot their little 20 lb. compound bow. They did very well.

BTW. The shooting range requires ear protection and shooting glasses for everyone at all times so no one left with ringing ears or crazy stuff like that.
