My Daughter the Sharpshooter

While on vacation in Missouri, my brother-in-law and I and the boys were doing some clay pigeon shooting when I asked Megan if she’d like to fire a gun for the first time. At first, she demurred, but eventually we goaded her into giving it a try. To our shock, after the briefest of lessons, she started knocking skeet from the sky like Annie Oakley. So here’s the pictorial record of my little redneck gal in action!

Dad gives Megs a quick lesson in pistol handling.

Megan fires away with Dad’s .357 as if she was a pro.

Now she tries out the single barrel shotgun and her first skeet.

Take a look at the form. She outshoots her brother AND her dad hitting 2 out of 3. Dad’s sure proud of his little redneck gal!
