Greyson McClung gives his new gun (and dad) a workout

Brian McClung sent in this shot of his son, Greyson, after a successful hunt on Nov. 21. Here’s Brian’s story:

“I just bought him a new rifle on Sunday, and after a couple of trips to the range, he could not wait to try it out.  We were on stand in Callaway for about an hour when a group of does came by and Greyson got a chance to try out his new gun.  Then I got to do the work. Greyson is 10, and he really likes his new gun.”

I bet Brian didn’t mind that work too much! Congrats, Greyson, on what are the first of I’m sure many deer to fall you and your new rifle!
