It’s hereditary via X chromosome hence expressed in males (XX) more than females (XY).

Almost. Males are XY, females are XX. Colour blindness is related to genes on the X chromosome. Since woman have two X chromosomes, they will likely have at least one functional gene. Men only have one X chromosome, so are more likely to be colour blind.

Oscar will be along shortly to object to that. He might or might not be colour blind but he pretends to not know me when trampers are around.

I am colour blind I am very careful with shot placement and wont take shots a lot of the time as it is very hard to see blood especially if its damp.

Have you ever been in situations where you've been looking at something with other people and you can spot things that they can't?
What's it like?

Damn right I object - that's highly offensive @Tahr. You should know better than to say that about me - what if other people start thinking I am friends with Duxbury?

I did think he was giving me the cold-shoulder on a roar trip once, I was trying to tell him about a stag roaring on the flat 50 meters in front of camp but he wouldn't talk to me. How was I to know a bushman like him sleeps with earplugs in?

You might not be colour blind, but at least you snore :)

(Don't believe a word he told you, that was a stag roaring not me).
