They probably saw that blued gun that I'm using because Hal shamed me for considering getting it camo-dipped, so all this is really his fault.
Sorry I missed out on this thread the first day.
But I suspect it was rejecting the offering of that bird in the tree right over y'all's heads. I won't reject any offerings anymore after learning my lesson the heard way a few years back.
But congrats on breaking the jinx. I think you must have been just given a warning on the rejection, instead of a full-blown, bad ju-ju sho'nuff jinx.
Tread carefully.... and I'm glad you didn't ruin that gun with camo....
