Re: 8yr old @ 1000 yds!!!!
Congrats to her on some impressive shooting!
As I'm sure your daughter will learn, a lot of guys don't take it well when a girl can outshoot them. As a father, there are few things in life that are more enjoyable to watch.

Ok... Well I'm sure she could have looked at the dope sheet and turned the turret herself... But I'm pretty damn sure it doesnt make a bit of difference.
Congrats on that, I cant wait for my 3 yr old boy to get into the sport.

Great. Now my 8-year old son wants to:
1) go to the range and shoot 1K
2) move to Nevada to meet Peyton!

Thats awesome. I can't wait until I can teach my daughter to shoot. I'm going to have to becuase from the looks of things now she is going to be gorgeous. So I need to teach her how to intimidate all the blow hard guys she's going to encounter! OMG I'm scared to death

That's impressive buddy. Even the 400 is impressive.
If she makes a habit of it, you might want to think about olympic shooting.

Re: 8yr old @ 1000 yds!!!!

Good shooting my son started about 8 yrs old and now he is 12. He has stuck with it and now loads his own ammo. Cant beat taking the kids out.

Re: 8yr old @ 1000 yds!!!!
That's Great! Let's all haul our old TV's out in the desert and shoot them. Is this the image you want the public to see? I think the steel is a better option as it can easily be removed.

Re: 8yr old @ 1000 yds!!!!
Looks like some great quality time was had. My twin daughters are 12 and they are my shooting buddies. We hunt, fish, and shoot together.
Heck with skills like that the Antelope better watch out, soon as your daughter is old enough for a tag.

Re: 8yr old @ 1000 yds!!!!
Congrats barrett, she'll remember this for a long time...
My youngest (12 yr old girl) asked me if she could have a 9mm for protection when the zombies come and to keep her safe from the boys.
Proud... VERY proud father here...

So I am the one that needs to "Chill". You don't think others that see your vids on YouTube are going to now think it's OK to haul their junk out to the desert and try that 1,000 yard or your 1 mile shot. And they might not be as considerate as you and not want to go pick up the trash afterwards. You might be the one that reconsiders what you are doing and the image you are giving of us long range shooters. I am just supprised I am the only one that sees this.

Re: 8yr old @ 1000 yds!!!!
Im pretty sure everything is gonna be ok. I really dont care to speak for anyone else. As long as I know we did the right thing by picking up our mess... who cares?

Re: 8yr old @ 1000 yds!!!!
My daughter Emmerson is 9 months old and I CAN'T WAIT until I can take her shooting! Peyton is certainly setting a good example for young ladies everywhere, as are you setting a good example for daddies! Good job to the both of you.
On a serious note; the plight of obsolete electronics has gone on too long. Far too often old TV's are hauled out into the desert to be used as target practice yet where is their voice! If Nancy Pelosi and her gun hating cronies in Washington get a hold if this video of such injustice to an old TV at the hands of a wholesome, law abiding family bonding over their common enjoyment of target shooting they'll finally have the foot hold they've been looking for, and we might as well all go ahead and hand our firearms over now.
The thing is AJ, the idea of us all hauling our old tv's into the desert and chopping them up sounds like an awesome day! I say we bring some grills to cook up some burgers and make it an annual event. As for those whom would use that video as some sort of advocacy against firearms and their owners; well... if you have to explain it to them, they'll never get it. Those people are going to hold a negative opinion of us whether we are shooting paper, steel, tv's or baby seals. And the bum's that are going to go junk up the desert and not clean up their mess are going to do so whether or not videos like this are on youtube. So I can see your POV, but I don't agree with it.

Re: 8yr old @ 1000 yds!!!!
I am happy to see barretthunter bonding with his daughter. I think that is great. I am just concernd that others will try his 1 Mile Shot or his daughters 1000 yard shot at the same TV and leave the mess. We have had several ranges here in Colorado shut down because of refridgerators, cars, and other trash left on public land. The BLM and Forest service aren't as friendly to shooters and it wasn't because of Nancy Pelosi it was our own actions.
