She's not a Sharpshooter...

Post by iratollah »

...because yesterday the NRA moved my teenage daughter up to Expert classification, just fifteen months after she started shooting High Power Rifle.

She's already talking about how she needs to practice more so she can achieve Master rating, which we're sure is easier said than done.

Hey, if it were your kid, you'd be bragging too. That is all.
it's socially unacceptable to be ahead of your time.

An Expert level is not easy to obtain. It is something to be proud of. :tiphat:

Dang skippy I would! I'm probably going to take my son out to the range for the first time ever this weekend though... so maybe he can get there someday.

Congrats - it's fun having a shooting family.

My late wife and daughter made Expert the same week in Smallbore, and I was just short of my Distinguished and trying hard to make it at the same time.

Congratulations to you and to your daughter.

My son tells me "No, I don't wan to go shooting with you. I don't like guns." :shock:

I knew there was something going on between the wife and the milkman.
Ben Franklin once stated that beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy. I tend to agree with him.
