There is much more to killing small animals than making one feel like a man, if you aren't a sportsman then I wouldn't expect you to understand.

And Quail is actually very tasty when prepared properly. Same goes for rabbit, deer, elk, pheasant, duck, goose, etc.

It was #7 1/2 birdshot according to what I saw. Less than a 1/10th of an inch in diameter...must've burned like hell.

Right.

I wasn't meaning a full OJ Simpson trial on court TV with all the trimming. But if the guy dies it's not going to go away like Clinton's BJ. It's already a political catastrophe on the gun rights issue. Anti-gun activist couldn't buy a better campaign.

It is wild to think about that though....The Vice President shoots and kills someone? I would think he would have to resign right?

Anyways let that be a lesson to people that you should always maintain the line when bird hunting. And you should always use a dog for retrieval. I can't believe they didn't have a bird-dog with all the money between them.

Real sportsmen don't go on these stupid canned hunts, that crap's for lazy rich bastard wannabe sportsmen.

They may as well have been shooting chickens for all the sport there is in shooting on a quail farm.

Didn't realize they were on a quail farm.....Did I miss that part of the article?

Only says from what I read that they were on a ranch. Although they were driving around in trucks looking for birds and then getting out to flush them. That's kinda weak....
