I'll send a £10 cheque to H4H on behalf of the first SD member who confirms where this roe buck was hit:
I'm with Chock, just before the hind leg, well back of the vitals. I've seen quite a few continental dvd's and they are pretty much all the same, trophy hunters who couldn't care a less about the beast or the meat....
Our opponents will use it as evidence of how callous we stalkers are.
Stalking doesn't need the League Against Cruel Sports and its animal welfare monitors: it has Bushwear.

If you really want to get upset, I suggest you have a look at the quality of the shooting on some of the UK-based deer stalking DVD's you can get from eBay. They are truly stomach-turning.

- I have cocked shots up too
- We all in the stalking world have a moral obligation to strive for and to promote best-practice - particularly in respect of the ethical treatment of our quarry
- No commercial organisation active in this field is immune from that obligation...in my view.
...I'll bring along the UK DVD's on Saturday.....you won't believe some of what you see.
