Shooting Sports day for the Kids

Submitted by JeremyT

One of the local guys hosts an annual shooting sports day for 4H kids at his place and we do a few trapping demos throughout the day to kind of introduce some of the youngans into trapping. This started as a 4H event but is actually open to all kids of all ages. The event was hosted by long time MTA member Kenny Braun. Also the land setting demos were done by long time MTA member Paul Braun.

Here are some of the kids and parents. There were over 30 kids that attended.

Here are some photos of the fur/trap display.

This me doing some water set demos.

Wearing the appropriate clothing of course.

These two little rugrats are my sons. I think they were thinking that Dad is full of Bull.

This is a group heading to watch the land setting demo. Unfortunately, I didn't get any shots of the demo in action.

Here are some random pics of the different activities that were offered for the kids.

The green string is weedeater string used as an "empty chamber indicator".
