The last time I fired the M-14 in 1965 I shot Expert (225), I was 22 years old.
The last time I shot trap years ago I couldn't miss.
The other day my son took his almost 65 year old father out shooting sporting clays and I quit after the first ten shots.
What was funny, I said pull and nothing happened, WTF ! I turned to my son and said, "I said pull"! He had a big grin on his face. :D
Getting old. :(
In all fairness to me, my son had gone out with his H.S. Marine buddy and his Marine father the week before who shoot all the time (gun nuts). His buddy got 60 out of a 100 and his dad 40.
Yes, earlier I couldn't even see the birds when my son pulled... I can't shoot what I don't see !
I quit running too, I still can and do a 3-5 mile walk each day. I guess that's better than being a dead shot ?
