I'm a bad shot.....
So today was a day of fun with guns. Yes, you read that right! I went to Bass Pro Shop with Devlon and did some shooting at their shooting range. I shot a 45 pistol and a 9mm handgun. Both of them scared the crap out and me and Devlon thought it was funny. He is a good and patient teacher.....so much to learn about the stance, aiming, shooting, holding the gun, handling the kick, etc. He could tell when I was frusturated when I missed the targets. I think I shot 2 rounds with the pistol and a couple of clips with the handgun, and maybe a handful of those shots made it on the target! Granted I only shot a 10ft distance. Apparently I anticipate the kick of the shot and pull the gun either down and to the left or up towards the left. Even when I missed, the area of the shots were consistent. I kept one of the shells from the pistol that made it closest to the bullseye. Uncle Kirk, you should be proud! I need some serious practice with just shooting and handling the gun, but it was a pretty awesome feeling. Next up..........rifle shooting!!! Scary thought, huh? :)
Off to see Jason Boland and the Stragglers. Should be fun and HOT. Cody Canada (lead singer of Cross Canadian Ragweed) had a baby boy this week.....Dirks Cobain Canada. Babies everywhere!
