Shoot till your black and blue |

Took the daughter in law out to let her try some clay pigeons. |
|
She hasn't shot here shottie in over two years and wanted to " |
|
Shake out the cobwebs" before our bird trip. Last year she |
|
stayed home. All went well , I thought, it took a box and a half |
|
before she got it back under control. After the next box and a |
|
half she was hitting with good regularity. We cleaned up after |
|
our selves, a buddy and I shot a bunch too. 155 shot shot shells |
|
make a good mess , we don't shoot at a range and I can use the |
|
hulls. Never gave it another thought. On the way out we ran |
|
across a badger rooting around and My buddy said to bad we only |
|
have shotguns. The D-I-L told him she had her 380 on her and |
|
handed it to him. I stop and he bail out at a run and chased it |
|
down. When he got about 15 feet from it, it wheeled around and |
|
faced him down. They look VERY impressive when they puff up and |
|
charge YOU, almost for got HE had the gun. A quick pop and it |
|
was over, Fun to watch. Anyway when we got home I looked at the |
|
D-I-L her jaw and cheek where swollen and black and blue? Humm? |
|
I'd never seen that. Do you think she was not holding her shot |
|
gun tight enough? I had loaded some special shells for he with |
|
very light recoil. Her arm and shoulder showed no sigh of a |
|
misalignment, no bruise. |
|
She is not impressed... [8(] |

Your DIL sounds like a Trooper if she was taking the recoil and |
|
kept going. I've never seen a Badger but have heard they can |
|
get pretty mean. |
