       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.
