Double standards or what? shooting hares, SPORT,dont make me laugh its the control of a species and nothing else yes its shooting to control numbers,some shots are easy some are testing,the disadvantage of being a good shot esecialy if your walking is you have to carry the hares,no fun on soft muddy ploughing,i prefer to course them but shooting can be good sport to Quote Link to post
billy the kid 1984 1 Posted February 14, 2009 Report Share Posted February 14, 2009 Well its that time of year again,the shooting season is finished and most shoots are letting their ferreteters into the coverts to ferret the rabbits. And now the hare shoots are starting,my brother spends a lot of time beating and picking up thruoghout the shooting season and has now got invites to 4 hare shoots in suffolk the first today the expected bag is about 300 hares this will be followed by a second shoot next week where they expect a further 200 hares after that they are left alone,similar numbers are expected on the other shoots,it always seems a shame to shoot that many hares but i suppose they need controlling.Since the ban several people have been prosecuted in this area for illegal hare coursing and with coursers recieving driving bans and vehicles conviscated its no wonder most courers are wary of slipping dogs in this area. WHATS YOUR VIEW?? its not sport shooting them they dont have a chance! at least with dogs theres a 50/50 chance they get away and you see a chase Quote Link to post

So you think that there long legs have evolved so you can course them with lurchers do you, how nice of them to give you a sport Quote Link to post
