Wife threatens to shoot husband's lion!

05 May 2012, 04:07

D. Nelson

This is directed to Frostbit, but applicable to any good husband who wants his wife to go to shooting school right before his Zambian lion hunt! Watch out, Jim! She's no longer an observer!

Best regards, D. Nelson

Darin,

I think you might be on to something. I'll just up her life insurance and if I wound the Lion Andrew and I can wait in camp sipping a single malt while Joyce does the follow-up.

She had a great time with you and Il Ling and her confidence is greatly improved. She was already a great range shooter and hell on birds with her .22. Now she knows she can shoot from uncomfortable positions at differing distances at critters with eye lashes.

Nice job!!

Cheers
Jim

Does this mean Andrew charges Huntress daily rates or non Hunting rates.

Hey! that Lion is holding a Pride!

Ha, that's awesome!! Jim's long awaited, agonizing lion hunt - just became his wife's lion hunt. Good luck Jim!

Those Lions were in Arizona so non-indigenous, thus no rules apply. I discussed your day rate vs. observer fee with Joyce and she has kindly decided not to charge Andrew to hunt with her.

Rhyme of the Sheep Hunter
May fordings never be too deep, And alders not too thick; May rock slides never be too steep And ridges not too slick.
And may your bullets shoot as swell As Fred Bear's arrow's flew; And may your nose work just as well As Jack O'Connor's too.
May winds be never at your tail When stalking down the steep; May bears be never on your trail When packing out your sheep.
May the hundred pounds upon you Not make you break or trip; And may the plane in which you flew Await you at the strip.
-Seth Peterson

What IS the world coming to?

Women have no business hunting.

They should stay at home and look after the kids

I think she'd rather shoot the bait than be it.

Umm, Little Miss,
Do you have a sister who would be interested in a Psychologist who is also a hunter?

Not to mention it only took her 22 months after registering to place her first post.

I have no doubt her second post will be directed to Saeed........

Darin,

Don't be too rough on Andrew. He recently found out Joyce is bringing her own CZ 452 (because it's cut to fit), which she shoots very well. Andrew has a CZ 455 and I think he may be a bit tense that the Madam may challenge him to a little shoot off.

Cheers

Does Andrew know that Joyce can now shoot the eye out of a Francolin at 200 yds???

I thought you said she improved at Gunsite? She could do that before she went. Oh I get it. She can do it from uncomfortable positions now.

Judging from emails for the last 18 months and his postings on this board such as his suggestion I weld the action shut on the double and call it an antique, I think he'll withstand anything we can put him through.........maybe.....he may get a few grey hairs.....wait....nevermind.

I first read the title of this post as "Wife threatens to shoot husband's loin", and then realized it said "lion", which isn't a whole lot better.

Now, that lion was a true gentleman.

Standing out there in the open like that.

Perfectly still, perfectly broadside, and at close range.

They must do that only for ladies.

Be very careful Saeed. Your daughter knows how to shoot. I'll bet she likes to hunt too. It may get expensive soon. She can also help look after Walter to keep him in check.
