    The ethics of shooting Thar (not mature bulls) and not retrieving them...

    Just wondered what you guys think about this.

    Whether or not its ethical or whatever to bomb up on groups of nannys and juveniles, without any intention to retrieve any meat.

    Personally for every bull I shoot, I knock over 3-4 nannies. I generally dont bother to retrieve them unless they are real handy.
    Some of this is down to "well if I dont, DOC will shoot alot more than 3 or 4" mentality

    What do u think?
