[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 623559, member: 1514"] There are idiots everywhere. At least here, and when my boys were younger, they had to take a hunter safety course to be able to hunt alone. I think they took it when they were 15 years old. After that you need a license. Or I think you do. Until kids are allowed to hunt on their own, they must be under the supervision of an adult. We are also well aware of the distance a bullet can travel. For shotguns that isnt very far. Different long guns have different differences but most will lose velocity after about 75 yards and the bullets will begin to fall. And no one should shoot at anything unless they are absolutely sure what they are aiming at. That means no shooting at what one thinks is a bear or deer and then finding out later is was a big dog. I have a feeling that with Monkey the turkey shoot interest will pass after not too much time. After all, any shot gun will kick and it will probably hurt her shoulder but she wants to do something with Papa and this is safe. Now I do have to admit I had a totally different opinion on this subject until I became country...lol. [/QUOTE]
