According to the land owner, Whittington had shot a bird and had gone
into some tall grass to retrieve it. He was rejoining the others who
had gone on ahead. At this time, another covey flushed and Cheney was
swinging on a bird that flew to his rear. The bird was in line with
Whittington as Cheney fired. He was hit in the cheek, neck and chest.


I saw the drawing today of the Texas hunting officials. Man, he really
peppered him, and the marks where it hit the old bird were pretty
concentrated in the upper left chest quadrant, the neck, lower jaw and face.

Looks like a full choke or even a turkey choke. Well, maybe not, but he did
catch a lot of shot in a small area.

That had to hurt.
