Couple wed in tree stand

From our friends in the NRA of the USA come a couple of heartening stories that readers may find heartening and mildly humorous.

First up is this charming story about a camo-clad couple getting married at their local gun club  – in a tree stand. Now, let’s hope a whitetail didn’t poke its nose into that wedding or a few concealed carriers may have added more venison to the menu

Next is a story that documents a recent rise in hunter numbers by a healthy nine percent. Despite all the pressure from anti-gunners in the USA, the people see that hunting is a healthy and worthwhile pursuit, particularly in increasingly urbanised and pressurised communities.
