Recently whilst shooting the ole Smokepole, I forgot to put on my shooting glasses.

I pulled the trigger, the pin hit the 209, and something hit me in the eye.

It was a searing pain. I could not see good for a couple of days, and my eye watered for three or four days.

Just a reminder to always wear glasses when shooting if possible.

OUCH!!!

It does not require many words to speak the truth.

Another tip that I am sure all of us do, is to wear hearing protection also. Its never to late to start. As my boss says, "What? I cant hear you, I got dirt in my eye."
