Our club each year organizes the livestock section at Essex county show where I also help to make sure everything is running smoothly.Although not the best shot, I enjoy going out with my gun and dog and having some fun. I also enjoy a lot of beating and some shooting where I often beat at my brother’s syndicate shoot throughout the season.
