I have a 2-yr old granddaughter and I am anticipating our first shoot/hunt/fishing trip together. But, after reading a sad, sad story in the Waco, TX paper about a grandfather who accidentally shot and killed his granddaughter, I'm a bit skittish.
Seems they were riding around in the jeep and saw a feral hog. Grandpa rested his rifle over the jeep hood and didn't make sure of a clear line of fire to the pig. Bullet hit the towbar and ricocheted, killing his granddaughter. Got to be the saddest thing I've ever read or heard.
