KSong,

I have to side w/ Mr. Bill. I bought my wife a Rememington 1187 12 ga. Shot Gun when she said she would like to learn to dove hunt. That lasted until she had to pull the head off one that she only winged. I walked up to her and she was sitting on the ground with her legs crossed, the shotgun was laying down next to her, and out to the right in front of her was the dove's body, and out to the left in front of her was the dove's head. She was bawling her eyes out and was saying,

"It just kept winking at me with those poor pathetic eyes,
I couldn't stand it, but I didn't want it to suffer. (Sob, Sob)
And I was calling for you as loud as I could, but you couldn't hear me,
So I had to put it out of it's misery, (sob) but I will not ever shoot another dove."

Oh yeah, she was really done. She picked up her gun, unloaded it, went and sat in the Truck, and has never touched it again.

Her last fishing rod and reel I bought her, I use all the time. But she said if I buy her any more fishing or hunting stuff, she will spend dollar for dollar buying what she really wants.

So I just buy it for myself now and don't tell her!
