RSVNelly 518 Posted November 20, 2016 Report Share Posted November 20, 2016 (edited) Just thought I'd put a quick post up to say, jimmy thank you for taking the time and patience to show my grandson (Owen) what he should be doing. As well as bringing all the guns again, a true gentleman thank you. I know you took some good pictures of the young un, so I'll let you explain the finer points. It was almost like a Hunting Life Reunion, thinking about it now we should have grabbed a picture. It was great seeing Sean again, I do love that Daystate, as well as putting some faces to names. Si and Kenny nice to meet you both today, even though it was freezing! I also met the marksman they call Little Hunter (Ethan), outstanding shot regardless of age. Also it was great to the young lad take time out from his own shooting to coach Owen, a real credit to you Jimmy and a lovely lad. I'm so glad I joined the forum, thanks Fella's I couldn't have hoped to meet a better a bunch of lads, thank you ?????? Edited November 20, 2016 by RSVNelly 11 Quote Link to post

He also said he wanted to go again but wasn't sure if he wanted a rifle or not? So Jimmy if you want to give me the HW100 and I'll look after it for him ??? I really hope he takes it up so he has interest outside instead of attached to a game console all day long! 1 Quote Link to post
