Has anyone completed the BDS Humane Animal Despatch Course? I am thinking of taking the course in 2015 when they release their dates but not sure what people thought of the course.
Opinions Appreciated!
Thanks Jim
Would anyone who has or has not been on a humane despatch course say what they carry in the car in the event of a deer rta to despatch the deer ?.
ps.. I mean routinely carry as part of a car kit.
+1 on jelens course, I did it at calton moor range earlier this year, good training manual with important contact details and lively discussions on various scenarios of road traffic accidents, also you could try the different weapons to be used, also there point of aim surprised everyone at close range got lantra certificate on completion
where was there point of aim?......
We used a range of head and full body profile targets and were demonstrating the use of .410 and 12 bore shot guns and .410 shot pistols using different shot sizes at different distances.

3 or 4 ....ishhow many paces?...
i am with Paul on this one,the most effective tool for the job in most situations where there's an immobile animal is an out of the cabinet shotgun for most and standard shot. Knife, great if you have the skill and it is safe to do so but that's not always the case.
Not many folk saying what they keep in the car.
I think car kit is part of the problem.
