Muddy boots and Lowedown, well said. I'd add that some education for your wife as to the vital part hunters play in the overall game management and conservation areas may serve to lessen the sting of your wife's preconceived ideas on hunting. Some of the most gentlemanly, genuine, conservation...

Not all people, a certain segment. Some of these guys are hard after the actual development of new rifles, loads, etc., or just want to max out their long range capabilities. More power to them. Others just want to spend their way into significance. I encounter these types in many areas of...
