Exactly.  I figure I'd only be using it in pretty close quarters.  Flight 
would be my first choice.  I've carried it for years and fortunately, never 
had to use it.  The stuff I have has a very tight, directional spray (not the 
fanning out kind).  My aim would have to be pretty good to hit anything with 
it.  But the idea of it makes me feel better when I'm out 10 miles from 
nowhere by myself.
