    other than the golf courses--i only use the big horn for an emergency warning--or for the little kids providing i am not going to annoy anybody by honking it
    i know what it is like to #### near crap yourself by being startled --and while sometimes i can see humour in it--i dont condone it
    one that comes to mind is when i was coming east out of golden bc--pulling the hill and some kids decided that i would be a good target for their paint guns--i didnt see them but when those balls hit the side of the truck--mine jumped into my throat--pretty loud when they are banging off the door,while you are under a good pull
