Point, and shoot. Not necessarily in that order.

>I just don't get it.

First you get a gun.
Then you point it at something.
Then you pull the trigger.
If you hit something, jump for joy.
If you miss, run away.
As fast as you can.

I live in the swamp. There is plenty to eat here, for those who
like nutria. Used to trade pelts years ago, but that was before the
state started paying $6 for just the tails. Now I just 'choot 'em.

Unlike Canadians, I never participated in penis-comparison-contests.
However, such contests are nothing like golf. Not in these parts.
I have played golf in the swamp. There is a 9-hole golf course,
on prison grounds, at Angola. I never made it through the entire
course, having hit far too many golf balls into the water, but I
did survive the alligators.

A true hunt is between a hunter and his/her prey. Not two hunters
going after each other. That is a war, not a hunt.

What incentive would there be for two lifers to go at each other?
They cannot be released, as both are a danger to society. Gotta keep
them in confinement, so the rest of us can remain safe.
