Bein' a No'thener who shoots a 28 gauge for the formidable trickster, the ruffed grouse, and the long-billed dodger, the woodcock, I can't figure why the Southe'n boys would need to club their little gent'men bob-white speedsters with such a massive load??

Spoken just like a d___n Yankee, for sure. No doubt you carry shells in a carpet bag, too. (I guess I should hide my 28s before I say this, eh?)
