Happy birthday Liam for the other day. :wink: :D

It's good to see you enjoying shooting your Mohawk bow. That's a real nice quiver and armguard too. You're a lucky young man mate, dad spent lots of money on presents for you. 8)

Rabbits can be a fickle species to hunt. One day they're in plague proportions and then, a week later, there's not one to be seen. They have three major enemies, the farmer (with Pindone poision), Calici virus and of course, mixo, but to a lesser degree these days, as new strains haven't been released for a while to my knowledge . They have a short life, but a merry one. :D

I'm looking forward to catching up with you and your dad later this month at the Ballarat shoot. :wink:

There is no use focusing on aiming if you don't execute the shot well enough to hit what your are aiming at.

good judgement comes from experience and experience comes from poor judgement
Nothing is easy. That's why it's called hunting, and not killing

He certainly is a very lucky young bloke! And what a great dad to support and encourage it!
I hope it is the beginnings of a lifelong love of archery for him. :D
