Well, shoot!

Driving to Thanksgiving dinner, we saw some blaze orange out in the fields.
The husband and I explained to the boys how the hunters work together, one will flush a deer out into the open where the others can take a shot at it.

Said Elder Son, "How would you like it if you were eating and some guy scared you out of the house and other guys starting shooting at you?"
Said the husband, "I wouldn't like that at all."
I eyeballed the husband's 6'3" frame and remarked, "Especially since they tend to shoot the big ones first."
He eyeballed me back, "Really? I thought they went after the ones with the nicest rack."

I'm sure you'd both make great trophies on someone's wall. (That husband of yours is wicked sharp.)

I wanna know how the boys reacted... Mine would have looked at me and asked "What rack?"
