[QUOTE="CMP70306, post: 2918909, member: 36999"] I usually end up sighting in my cousins rifle every year, he has zero interest in shooting and only comes up once a year to hunt with his Dad. We put him in stands where he only has to shoot 50 yards and he usually does ok but we usually loose at least one shoulder due to poor shot placement. Boats add the whole other dynamic of Mother Nature does not give one **** if you live or die. Case in point just a couple weeks ago at an inlet in NJ a guy with his two sons was coming back from fishing on a rough day. As they went to line up and time the waves to go in the inlet a 15ft wave broke in the dark and hit them broadside rolling the boat in an instant. Dad and one son barely made it to the rocks and had to be drug up on shore, the other son was missing and wasn’t found until several days later. An experienced guy who had traveled the inlet for years but wrong place, wrong time got his son killed. [/QUOTE]
