Re: New Shooters and Misunderstood Questions?

Compared to a trip to the ol' golf driving range. If you walk up and say "what are you hitting", the type of response you get, usually tells you what type of person your dealing with.

Example:
- "Ping, 5iron, blue flag"(In the gun world this would sound like "Sig, 9mm, 25 yard line", This is a fairly cool person who doesnt mind taking a moment amidst a practice session to exchange some info with a fellow golfer.
- "golf balls" (this would be like saying "bullets")- If the statement was followed by a smile, then it is apparent someone pulled this genius 1-liner on him in a time gone by and he uses it as an ice breaker. If not, then he is a prick who thinks he is a lot better than he is, and usually I try and coax him into a money game where I would try and wipe that attitude off of his personality.

My guess is the lady was irritated at being there, and someone wanting to talk with her was simply going to prolong her misery. The guy was now at the back of a long line of men that have taken a wife/girlfriend/date to a "guy type" activity and it ended in dissapointment.

Let this be a lesson to all men. No, your female friend doesnt want to play golf, go shooting, or wander around Cabela's for an hour while you fondel handguns you can't afford. If you do have a woman that is interested in those things, you should consider yourself lucky and try to figure out a way to market and sell her DNA.
