Alchemist :
This is an awfully nice kid. He'll be just fine. Yes, you're right he'll be real busy now casting, sizing, loading and shooting.
I think that we ( my small efforts + all of yours ) may have won another one over to the shooting sports. We need more.... ! !
I fear that if we don't get more young men and women into the shooting sports that there will be a day that will come , down the road ( possibly after I'm dead and gone ) where the shooting sports won't carry the political clout and votes necessary to survive.
You know, if you don't love it and it isn't dear to you, you won't be willing to fight for it.
Go and find a kid and take him with you to shoot ! It is good for BOTH of you.
Thanks,
Ben
