Just a side note, I remember using a shotgun for harvesting Mistletoe for Christmas for a friend's mom in my high school days. She loved to decorate with the stuff. You would pick a branch with a lot of Mistletoe on it and shoot behind it to break the branch. It never took more than 2 or 3 shots to bring the whole branch down. We would break the Mistletoe off and fill the car trunk with it.
