Everybody in this part of the world who's worth a damn has been peppered with birdshot one time or another.

I have.

My boss once made the mistake of inviting me along on a stock-tank dove hunt. Also made the mistake of parking his new white pickup somewhere out away from the water hole.

You guessed it, I peppered it.

Served him right, by the way. He should have known better than that, and I told him it was not a good idea at the time. When the birds are flyin', so is the shot. Everything you want preserved should be with you, with the hunters close together and back-to-back.

With that arrangement, and an understanding that you don't shoot over the water, everything should be hunky-dory.
