A Hunters last request......

Sports fans have made unusual requests regarding their bodies after they've died.
Once, a football fan said his wish was to be stuffed and put in a chair in front of his TV for Sunday games.
Now, it seems that outdoorsmen have their passions, too. Mike Dupps, a hunter from Willow, Alaska, wants his ashes mixed into shotgun shells so he can enjoy one final hunt.
The Anchorage Daily News found a precedent: The widow of a gun specialist in Scotland had her husband's ashes mixed with shot and loaded into 12-gauge shells.
In his honor, pals used the shells to bag 70 partridges, 23 pheasants and seven ducks.
