Dee, I'm so sorry to learn of your mother's passing. Life kicks hard sometimes. I know you'll never get over it but in time you'll get through it. May God bless you and comfort you.

Dee, If you ever want to talk about any shooting or pistols you are shooting I don't think anybody would care. Got me some Glaser PowRball 380 for my LCP hope they feed smooth there supposed to got a hollow point filled with a plastic ball. You must feel mighty lonely since your parents passed read your Bible helps me. ch

It is definitely lonely and scary all in one. I'm only 34 and confused as to how to come to terms with losing my parents so early. Time will make it managable just not easier I guess

I'm sorry to learn of yet another loss for you Dee. If it's any help, you're not alone. I lost my father and one of my favorite uncles within 3 months of each other last year. At 36, I thought I had more time with them as well. Not long after my father's passing, I adopted a 4 yr old black lab. He was probably the best therapy I could have asked for. I'm certain you're in many prayers this evening.

You know.....I've been contemplating getting myself and my girls a puppy to keep us busy and redirect our love to a faithful companion. Just haven't been able to settle on what to look for. But of course my thoughts are all over the board right now. I've thought of a Bassett Hound all the way to a German Shepherd lol. I did come across a Bloodhound rescue here locally but not sure of the breed and care for them. I will keep looking and know when the time is right, it'll happen. I appreciate all of the words of encouragement and sympathy. You guys are the best!

On a more upbeat note.......I just got a new S&W 9mm and a Taurus 45. Once everything calms down a bit, I'm looking forward to going to the range and getting a little bit of "gun therapy" in. Also, next weekend I will be going turkey hunting for the first time, so I'm really looking forward to it. Any tips and tricks you guys can give to the new kid?

First off, let me suggest a Lab as a great family dog - they're a lot of fun and love kids... and they can be really good pheasant flushers and retrievers.

I'd recommend you get your first turkey advice from the people you hunt with but always take a head shot on them. Body shots are often crippling shots on turkeys.

I've thought about getting a lab, but I don't know the first thing about training it for hunting. That and I've never pheasant hunted before either. I love the outdoors and shooting, so once everything calms down, I think I am going to try my hand at just about every kind of hunting I can think of. I know for me, deer hunting is very relaxing and calming so I look forward to trying new things and occupying my time.
