cjw 1 Posted November 4, 2008 Report Share Posted November 4, 2008 hi all just had phone call from a mate of mine who went out with his rimfire last night for an hour, said he shot 1/2 dozen rabbits, i asked him what he has done with them, his reply was CHUCKED UM, so i said why chuck um and he told me he couldn,t be ar**d to pick them up and gut etc, why did you not ring i said i would have come over for them , couldn,t be ar**d came the answer, i was fuming because i think if you shoot it you should respect it and eat it, my question is do,s anybody agree with me or not or, do,s anyone else just shoot and leave their quarry thanks keep hunting cjw Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest ferret feller Posted November 4, 2008 Report Share Posted November 4, 2008 i haerd of someone shooting pheasents at night out of the trees and chucking them pissed me off anyway Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kevegg 0 Posted November 4, 2008 Report Share Posted November 4, 2008 I only leave rats and even then I sometimes give them to the ferrets if they look OK. Everything else gets eaten either by me and my family (sorry that should be my family and I) or the dogs or the ferrets. Even the crops out of pheasants and woodpigeons gets thrown down for the chickens. Kev. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Duck Down 98 0 Posted November 4, 2008 Report Share Posted November 4, 2008 in my opinion its the people who cant be ars@d are the ones who bring a bad name to fieldsports! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Shooter08 0 Posted November 4, 2008 Report Share Posted November 4, 2008 bad that just killing them for nothing, even selling them on isnt too bad, but just leaving them.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
pointer28 1 Posted November 4, 2008 Report Share Posted November 4, 2008 Killing animals just for the sake of it has no sporting value at all. If that's all he's interested in, then why doesn't he shoot paper targets or clay pigeons instead of giving the rest of us a bad name. That's exactly what the anti's want to hear and they would like to think we all carry on like that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest little_lloyd Posted November 4, 2008 Report Share Posted November 4, 2008 Out here you often find dozens on rabbits,, Hundreds of pidgeons or even i once seen a roebuck just chucked in the hedge after a night or days work from the rilfe boys. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lofti 579 Posted November 4, 2008 Report Share Posted November 4, 2008 that for me isnt hunting!it just f**kin messing what a c**t. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
will.f11 24 Posted November 4, 2008 Report Share Posted November 4, 2008 Its vermine mate, IMO. If we catch alot of rabbits, we use as many as possible but that sometimes means 20 rabbits in the hedge. on our farm and others we get rid of the rabbits for pest controll and not for eating. so we kill as many as we can and try not to let many get away Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hiho 5 Posted November 4, 2008 Report Share Posted November 4, 2008 when were on a busy nights lamping we dont pick them up or else it take ages to get round one field and we have no need for them anyway its just pest control Quote Link to post Share on other sites
leegreen 2,173 Posted November 4, 2008 Report Share Posted November 4, 2008 A friend of mine shoots 100+ bunnies a week with a HMR unless I ask for them he leaves them there. When I said why he answer was " I leave them there for the foxes, then I shoot them aswell." Quote Link to post Share on other sites
whippeter69 88 Posted November 4, 2008 Report Share Posted November 4, 2008 If he cant be arsed to pick them up, he shouldn't be out the shooting them, lazy g*t Quote Link to post Share on other sites
WxmHunter 0 Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 ye init.. could of give them to someone or sold them.. the prices of rabbit are pretty dear. i no alot of people that would snatch at the chance of gettin free rabbits without gettin up early or goin out late at night to catch them.. even worse if your mate likes rabbit/ would eat them to say i couldnt be bothered getting them :S ... makes you think if he did shoot any? could of been a bad day/ night out an had seen nothink an felt abit inbarrest about having nothink... ahh well, just hope most hunters arent like that, seems pointless to kill somethink for no reason, people like that should take up different hobbies/sports!..
