What a great hostage target. Your wife cleared the president, but took out the terrorist behind him.

Girls are often good shooters. It’s kind of cheating though, they are better listeners.

It’s more than that. Besides usually having a bit more dexterity they also don’t come with the “male baggage” we ALL have. The innate hunter gatherer/warrior mentality that “BY GOD OF COURSE I CAN SHOOT A GUN, I AM A MAN.” or “ BY GOD I CAN DRIVE A CAR I AM A MAN!” Etc. Etc. We are all guilty of this in some way and I sure as hell am. This makes it much harder, in my experience, to teach a man vs a woman things like shooting or driving a stick or using certain tools etc. woman both tend to listen and tend not to have preconceived notions about what they should already be able to do with “manly skills”.

Like I said I wish I could say I have never been that guy but…….HUNTER GATHERER/WARRIOR DNA DAMMIT.

Looks like fun. Be careful shooting hard targets with BBs. They will come back with a surprising amount of velocity when they hit something hard. I broke a window that way, many, many years ago. Shot a steel fence post about 20 yards away and the BB came back and hit a window behind me.

When I was 9 or 10 year old I had this happen to me. I shot a metal backed tail light lense on an old junk farm trailer in a pasture. I was kneeling when I shot it, fired the shot, hit the target and the BB came right back under my left eye. Very fortunate it wasn't a half inch or so higher when it hit me.

Can't hardly do worse than shooting a tarantula inside of an old tractor tire. Did that once with an old Daisy 10 pump back when I was a kid. Never again lol

Go see a neurologist. There a couple of medications that will help with your problem.

I was one of the patents that ran a NRA Smallbote Junior Shooting program for years, and I can say girls are better "natural" shooters because they listen and seem to apply better, sooner. At least until they discover boys. Boys stay with it longer, at least until they hey theor drivers lisence, then girls
