Shooting yourself in the foot

There is the old adage “Don’t shoot yourself in the foot”, and today’s city folks don’t understand how old saying sometimes have a basis in reality.



It’s not just Canadians who shoot themselves in the foot, rednecks can do it too!

Last week Bubba was at the range, getting ready for turkey season:



While there, he accidently discharged his shotgun right into his foot. At first blush it didn’t look too bad, just a small hole in his shoe:



Fortunately, it was only a meat shot, no bones broken:



Just a half inch variance in either direction, and Bubba would have had to pay for an expensive visit to the vet. Fortunately, this injury could easily treated at home with a potus salve:



While this was just a minor injury, it could have been much worse, and it might have required hospital treatment.

Remember to always keep your safety on!
