Son scored this morning in NC
« on: April 08, 2020, 04:12:46 PM »
My son got this Tom this morning during the NC youth season.  This is the first season he's used a 12 gauge, and he's using a Mossberg 835 at that.  After watching me shoot it on the lead sled he was a bit concerned about the recoil, even though I had 50 lbs of lead on the sled.  As we walked up to the bird this morning I asked him "how was that recoil"?  He said he didn't notice it...
I live and hunt by empirical evidence.

Congratulations to your son, that adrenaline takes care of that recoil for a lot of folks. I like the boonie hat by the way.

Very nice.   Nothing like a hunt with your son.
