I made a post about the henry .22, well here is the end result. I made my 8 year old prove last weekend that he could regularly hit a snuff can at 20 yards off hand before I would take him squirrel hunting. Well, he did so I took him and he got his first squirrel. Shooting off hand with open sights. His springer spaniel James retrieved the squirrel to hand. Both boys had a great time and so did dad.

Congrats!!! That smile says it ALL! Good job Pop!
Cool! Looks pretty darn proud.
thats great! fox squirrel-n-dumplins for dinner. yum!
That is a awesome picture! Congratulations to you for a fine job of teaching your son to handle a fire arm and to him for a clean kill and his first squirrel! I made my son carry his gun unloaded until he was ready and now at 19 he is a responsible guy owner.
Good stuff.....I sure like it when stories like these get posted. Good job to all 3 of you......dad, son and the spaniel retriever, you all done good!
Looks like good time had all around great job.
Great pic!!!! He will always remember this one!!!
very nice!
Thats Priceless.
Now that's awesome! Got a great memory with your son and dog!!
Good stuff!
Congrats, Very Nice.
outstanding, that picture says it all,,, bet he was on cloud 9, and the dog did well too... give him a doggy treat...
Thanks all. Yes he was on cloud nine. It was funny because he got really nervous when we saw that squirrel. I didn't expect that as he has killed several ducks with a 20ga, but this was his first animal with a .22 rifle(dispatching trapped possums at 3ft with a .22 pistol doesnt count). HA.
WTG Dad! From that smile he will always remember that hunt with Dad!Thumbs Up
Great pic! you need to pull that pic out in 20 years and show them. WTG
