Did you ever just QUIT?

Don't get me wrong guys, I love to shoot. I have a name for those that won't shoot when it's too cold, too hot, raining, snowing, windy, etc. Fair weather shooters. Woosies. I like to challenge myself, and feel when the going gets tough, the tough lie in the mud and rain, and keep shooting. If I plan to go shooting, I shoot. I do like to stop and smell the roses sometimes,though, and getting a one shot "kill" on a target is a moment to be savored, just like that rose or patch of fresh raspberries. I might just have to stop shooting to savor the moment.
 
I've voluntarily quit shooting once before I was ready... was at my local range shooting my normal set of groups, failure drills, Bill drills, etc. when the door to the range opens and I smell perfume... not the type that a sophisticated more grounded woman would wear but something that smelled like youth. I looked back from my stall and saw them, two 22 year olds, wearing shorts that barely covered their butts, tight tank tops, 3+ inch heels, and carrying the range's rental Glock and a zombie target. Nice to look at but the little safety officer on my shoulder said "get out now".

Fearing for my safety, I packed up my toys and left. Sure enough while talking to the staff one of them discharges the gun into the floor 2 feet in front of them... just saying... some times you just know its time to go. Range staff went in to educate them on proper gun handling and safety as I left.
