mackay 3,364 Posted February 22, 2012 Report Share Posted February 22, 2012 Shooting hares invariably arouses controversy, I don't shoot them myself but, if they're being shot in those kind of numbers year in year out then somethings working. Also in those kinds of numbers they could be classed as an agricultural pest. What I would consider shit were someone shooting hares on ground where they are few and far between, then again if there numbers were low in so far as a sighting was rare, I wouldn't run them with a dog either, (pre ban). 1 Link to post
Mrg 8 Posted February 22, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2012 I spoke to the keeper after the shoot who told me this was the. Fourth year in a row that they had shot over 350 hares ! The estates and farms either side of where we were shooting also bagged similar bag sizes !, just short of £1,000 raised for local charity . Great day out and I do understand its not for everyone and d dont want to rattle anyone cage but I aint gonna loose any sleep over it ! Cheers 1 Link to post
Lab 10,979 Posted February 22, 2012 Report Share Posted February 22, 2012 I'll tell you one thing i'd rather hear of 300 being shot, dished out to the guns, beaters, pickers up at the end of the day and the rest go to the game dealers than 1 being caught by a dog and thrown in the nearest ditch. 2 Link to post
