Congratulations to your son Chad. Thanks for sharing this report. Great to see that he and other young men are taking an interest and showing enthusiasm for double guns and the shooting sports. It kinda runs counter to this sort of B.S. that we often see posted here:
I haven't encountered loony behaviour---quite the opposite, more likely rolling of the eyes with look of resignation---when I mention in the company of strangers shooting birds and animals where I live in North America.
For real sport, London is the best place to drop that I'm hunter and trapper. Especially in a pub. First, a shocked silence. Then the old white-haired man must be joking, especially one with a sweet, old white-haired wife.
I taper off the Englanders with soothing words that I don't apologize for what I do, and my type are like dinosaurs who won't last forever. When we die it will be as they want it to be. Often my victims buy me a drink.
Sorry to inform King and his kind, but the next generation is just as likely to enjoy the shooting sports so long as we are willing to encourage them.
