Hunters Ed!

Where did it go? Lets see we started the month out with Bowdee and I going every Tues and Wed to Lehi for our Hunters Ed class. It was 3 hours a night and we did that for 3 weeks. By the end of the course Bowdee and I were both ready to purposefully flunk our tests so we could do it again. We just loved the time that we had to go off together and learn some really cool things about guns and safety. I honestly feel like this is a course EVERYONE should take. Not just those who want to hunt but everyone I feel like there would be so many less gun accidents that it would be worth it. Anyway we both passed our written tests I got 100% and Bowdee got 94% we were both excited about that but nervous about the shooting test. The big day came and after a couple times going out practicing I felt like I could pass the test. However, Bowdee had a .22 that was way to big for him, so we were all nervous for him. But fear not he pulled through and passed the test by the skin of his teeth. I passed with 28/30 and felt I could have done better if I relaxed and went pee before the shooting began... Anyway both Bowdee and I now have our Hunters Safety! Ya Ya so cool. Last night Terry and I even put in for my first deer hunt. We will see how that goes, it should be a fun camping trip anyway.
