Phil

He wasn't down range, he was on the flank! At least according to the story.

>>I think that it is great that the accidental (?) shooting of a hunting 
>>partner by the vice president has changed the rules of hunting. No longer 
>>is it the sole responsibility of the shooter not to shoot someone; for now 
>>on we had all better duck (or get the first shot off) when hunting in 
>>groups. It should liven up the field quite a bit this fall. Figuring out 
>>what shot and choke for this new paradigm in hunting will be a challenge. 
>>I usually like an over-under with an open on the first and full on the 
>>second. I have never felt mean enough to shoot tiny little quail so I like 
>>#6 for chukar and pheasant. I think with the new rules however I will use 
>>a pump with the plug removed so I can have more shots and up the shot size 
>>to #4 for the first two and 00 to fill it up. I think I will go with a 
>>full choke. I swing best to the right so I want to position myself on the 
>>left flank for the best advantage.
>>
>>At least Cheney should have warned the rest of the party that this was an 
>>every-man-for-himself outing. Fairness is not a mark of the man however.
>>
>>I am also surprised that, from 30 yards, #8 steel shot would penetrate 
>>through a man's hunting clothing and go into the body cavity. I have never 
>>actually used #8 shot for anything but they are tiny little shot without 
>>the necessary mass to carry 30 yards and still have that much energy. I 
>>really expect that the delay in getting the message out has something to 
>>do with getting the story straight.
>>
>>Anyone else out there care to share your planned equipment for this new 
>>sport? I suppose that we will all want to hold our secrets to give 
>>ourselves the advantage. The adrenalin is pumping just thinking about it.
