Growing up surrounded by the thrill of the outdoors, we spent our childhood immersed in activities like fishing, shooting pheasants and clay targets, boating, and camping. Among these, clay shooting stood out as an exhilarating way to build the courage needed to handle a double-barrel shotgun. The challenge of aiming and firing as the clay pigeons soared into the sky was both daunting and thrilling.

Becoming a skilled marksman required patience, precision, and bravery. The weight of the gun and the powerful sensation of firing it sent an electrifying rush through our veins. What began as an intimidating experience for young boys evolved into a source of excitement and pride as we grew into men. The journey from those early days of nervous anticipation to confident marksmanship became a cherished part of our shared adventures, each shot fired a testament to our courage and growth.
