Sounds like an excellent time was had, Dave.
And some valuable father and son time.
T'lad hasn't picked up a rifle of any description for a couple of years now. Despite temptation I kept his hw99s in storage, hoping that one day he'd come back to it.
Yesterday afternoon he wanted a plink in the garden so, a balmy sunny afternoon and a few reactive targets on the grass and away we went.
Best fun was one I bought a couple of years ago which has never been used. A bit like a big wheel it has discs which flip over when hit. As they flip over the point of balance adjusts causing it to rotate and then swing like a pendulum. Effectively you end up shooting moving targets. Speed shooting a pair of break barrels to win by either getting them all up or down got a bit competitive. I won't reveal who won, but it was a lot of fun.
Very therapeutic, but my left arm aches like buggery this morning.

That’s gives me hope then mate. I’ve put aside an Imp for my eldest in the hope that he will take to shooting. Also a nice little marlin 22.
