Guest Mass_G3nocide Posted November 13, 2008 Report Share Posted November 13, 2008 I’ve never taken a photo of anything I’ve shot, what’s the point??????? It’s just so bloody infantile and odious, why do it. Rant over. Same here my mates all like hunting but they say its weird to take photos of dead stuff and i agree with them I allways have respect for the dead. Quote Link to post
lewismac1 1 Posted November 13, 2008 Report Share Posted November 13, 2008 (edited) I personally dont see the "sport" in shooting a resting phesant up a tree. Phesants are released for "Sport" aka flying over guns at 40mph. Not dropping a gamebird at heehaw range with an air rifle when it is in the saftey of a tree Just my opinion Edited November 13, 2008 by lewismac1 Quote Link to post

lewismac1 1 Posted November 13, 2008 Report Share Posted November 13, 2008 Yes i see your point, i think it is ok for that type of controll. Although i hate to see people lamping phessies up trees shooting them off trees. when there is no skill or no chance of the phesant moving because it is roosting. rant over Quote Link to post
moxy 617 Posted November 13, 2008 Report Share Posted November 13, 2008 People always have and always will get on their high horse about shooting roosting pheasants. In my opinion you have no right to criticise another mans sport just because you dont like it. Have you ever been roost shooting? If the answer is NO then you have no grounds on which to base your opinion. Shooting rabbits on the lamp isnt hard but no one complains about that. Having shot both driven pheasants and roost shooting i personally enjoy roost shooting more. Dont get me wrong driven pheasants are ok but they are not as hard as alot of people make them out to be and the waiting for the beaters done my head in. Getting close to a roosting pheasant requires more fieldcraft than waiting for one to be flushed and then popping it off. Quote Link to post
