I have just read a pile of American/Canadian hunting magazines and shooting moving deer appears to be an acceptable practise. Likewise for driven deer/boar shooting on the continent.
I wondered what U.K stalkers make of this and when do you draw the line, only stationary deer, walking deer or would you up rifle and shoot a bolted deer within say 50yds which is the boundary for shooting on most continental driven shoots?
I don't want to start an Us Vs Them arguement, it's just that my own eyes have been opened since I went to Europe and saw the levels of marksmanship that they show on running game.
I know where the B.D.S would stand on this but they must preach an absolute line that perhaps does not reflect what other people/countries regard as a broad enough remit.
What are your thoughts on moving deer shooting?
