Light versus dark
« on: November 21, 2011, 02:11:53 PM »
Light colored cow = old cow. Dark colored cow = young cow. Is that right or other way around? Don't want a tough old one. :bdid:

Don't shoot the one that the rest are all following. Shoot one in the middle... ah hell just shoot any one...

Shoot the first one on range :tup: old ones make good burger! young ones make good steaks! medium aged ones make both!
You can say the early bird gets the worm, but the second mouse always gets the cheese!

It depends if there are multiple cow tag holders present.
No, shoot a middle of the pack.
Yes, shoot the the front runner.  The others will stop because the brains of the operation just fell over.  :chuckle:
