    I have always tempered my killing with respect for the game pursued. I see the animal not only as a target but as a living creature with more freedom than I will ever have. I take that life if I can, with regret as well as joy, and with the sure knowledge that nature's ways of fang and claw or exposure and starvation are a far crueler fate than I bestow. - Fred Bear

    Yep snakebite... sank more than a few of those... mostly with tennants and woodpecker

    variations would include blackcurrant cordial, redcurrant cordial, and vodka being added....

    Shandy would normally be beer and lemonade (think 7up without the lemon taste)
