So very new to this hobby, yet it has given me so much joy already and have yet to fire a single round. I've been very interested in guns since I was a kid. As young kid, I remember sneaking into the basement to take a look at my grandfathers guns that we recently acquired due to his passing. The guns didn't last long in the house and my dream of pulling the trigger would have to wait..... Years and endless counts of military, tactical movies later, I was asked to go play a game of paint ball " age19". I instantly fell in love. I played a few more times before buying all my gear, finding my own forest, and setting up some big games with friends. Like most great things life got busier, games got smaller, till it all stopped. My love for guns and the outdoors didn't. My dad and I have always had a good bond. He has taught me a lot about the woods and we have gone on some amazing adventures, if it's northern Ontario or tenting in the great Alasken outdoors. We have done it all! Now I'm 32, have a beautiful wife, and two amazing smart kids. I ask my wife what she thought if I got my PAL?, she not only said yes!! But she wanted to get it with me and shoot!!! "Badass" We then both said it would be a great idea if my dad would get it with us! He was so excited when we asked, So we did it. We signed up, took the course and now are all certified a year later. So here I am reading and learning about all your experiences and can't wait to start having my own!
