My ex that is. I told her that she wouldn't feel her rifle recoil, or hear it, when she shot at a deer. One day she took two shots at a deer. That night I asked her about the recoil. She was surprised that she didn't feel the recoil. Then I asked if she heard the shot. "No" was her response. And that surprised her more!
BTW she missed both shots.

I'd likely dump a gal that couldn't shoot as well..

It was about a 100 yard shot. And she shot off hand. I was looking threw binoculars, so I didn't see her shoot. She had a nice stump in front of her that she could've used as a bench rest.
If you reload, there's no such thing as an obsolete cartridge.
Once you render an opinion, you open yourself up to criticism.

Keep her. Her heart is clearly in the right place; she just needs a bit of training. Ex sex can be pretty good as well.
My own Little Dove hasn't expressed a desire to shoot anything as yet, but is a willing helper when the butchering (and eating) starts. She also likes to go along, as long as it's not too cold.

I was looking, threw binoculars, so I didn't see her shoot. Why'd you throw your binoculars?

The only true cost of having a dog is its death.

Leonten, My wife says the same thing, especially when talking to other women. Though, in 27 years of hunting, I've never seen her miss! Very few required a second shot!!!! Her rifle of choice for hunting, a .338WM since '95. She will "readily" tell you that she "does not like" bench work though! memtb
