chasing that rooster into the back of<br />
the car. We drove a short distance outside<br />
of town to a local farm. The farmer<br />
and his wife were sitting out on the<br />
front porch. We talked a while before<br />
dad asked if they would like a rooster.<br />
Sensing something amiss, the farmer<br />
asked how much we wanted for the<br />
rooster. Dad replied he was only trying<br />
to find a good home for him. The old<br />
farmer was still reluctant, but agreed to<br />
take the rooster. As dad opened the back<br />
door the rooster came out of the car like<br />
a shot and was all over the woman sitting<br />
on the porch. Her husband grabbed<br />
a broom and took off to join the fight.<br />
Dad told me to get in the car, and as we<br />
flew down the long dirt driveway I was<br />
looking out the back window watching<br />
the cloud of dust and feathers.<br />
By the way, I agree with everything<br />
you said about keeping a .22 rifle onhand,<br />
mag loaded, chamber empty.<br />
Mine is leaning in the corner near the<br />
back door. The only difference is mine<br />
is a .22 magnum. I bet my rooster could<br />
whip your rooster!<br />

Well LD, since there technically ain’t<br />
a rooster here anymore (the “girls”<br />
remain happy about that), you’d win for<br />
sure. RH<br />
Kids And Guns<br />
A thanks is owed to Handgunner<br />
for always including the ladies, young<br />
and grown, in our sport. As I remember<br />
it, 40 years ago when I was a kid it<br />
“seemed” shooting was sort of a guy<br />
thing. Sillly us. Now we have female<br />
champs I wish I could emulate on the<br />
competition field!<br />
Starting girls out right is fun. As<br />
a case in point we bought my niece a<br />
new .22 Heritage revolver for her first<br />
handgun — only used under supervision<br />
of course. She had fired a 10/22 etc.<br />
before, even a Mark III .22 and assorted<br />
pellet guns, but I think the single<br />
action helps slow the kids down and<br />
