I just happened to turn on a "hunting" show that was on the Sportsman Channel!

This place had different stations where 2 "hunters" stood and out from these stations, was a tower. From the tower a guy threw a pheasant up in the air and it would fly past these stations!:(

Both "hunters" start shooting and blast this bird out of the sky! They have dogs to retrieve the downed birds and are bragging about this "hunting" experience! :mad:

Have we lowered ourselves so low we let places like this be allowed to operate?:confused:

The only website I got off of the TV was www.bintherehunting.com. I went to this website and it looks as if it is guided hunts for bird hunting!

This whole thing makes me sick and MAD!!!:mad:

How can an state allow something like this to go on! It was in Louisiana where this "club" is at and where the "hunt" took place!

What can we do to stop this? You talk about giving a real sportsman/hunter a black eye!

What next?

There are places here where people raise elk, then sell them for a guy just to walk out there with a rifle and shoot it. Then they take pictures(without the fence in the background) and talk about the thrill of the hunt. It makes me sick also.

Where do people find joy in shooting a pened up animal?

Why would you want to shoot a pened up animal?

And how could you bring yourself to shoot something that will come five feet from you every time you shake the feed bucket?

If you really want to see this type of activity stopped, the key, it would seem, is edcation. Many people here at RT do not consider "trap shooting" as sporty (preaching to the choir), but the more people know about it, the less likely the activity would continue (IMO).

Here in upstate NY we used to have such an operation. I believe the owner got "tired" of the "business" and found other things to do with his time.

i went on an upland hunt when i was younger in, that was ok, cause it was no fun to hunt cause you had to literally step on the birds to flush them, but i was told that they take the birds and shake them up in boxes before they release them, and they are so dazed they dont move, not really my thing
