    He’s a great shot, shame he felt the arse on shot was required at 200m.
    Two things stood out for me, (a) it’s embarrassing what people will do for money and (b) it’s embarrassing what some people do with money.

    hazing in this case is using a helicopter to move an animal into a position where it is then shot by the client - they use deep snow or bluffs and tire the animal out and then the client gets out and shoots it - used by Safari operators on thar and chamois mostly -not so much on deer - the ethics of it well over to you - to me I could not look up at a thar head up on my wall shot in that way

    Deer are easy, you just shake the pellet bucket.

    yes I dont doubt some of those freak heads they shoot as clients know exactly what deer pellets are and some clever camera angles they dont get the deer fences in the videos - just saying - I have shot some good stags from Helicopters meat days but not one was kept by me

    It's not a comedy?
    Shooting tame deer, clearly chasing animals in the helicopter till they're tired then retreating to a distance to take a "perfect shot" when the animal still tries to make a run for it, shooting an animal in the arse at 200m when "Ammon Ammon is a top shooter who is able to shoot accurately even at very long distances" and the commentary is hilarious.

    happens all over the world catering no pandering to paying clients - no worse than in SA safari parks where the client sits in a blind high above a water trough in fact likely the only water supply in the paddock and shoots kudu or whatever - or plugs a farmed and sedated lion - look at the photos from USA of deer farmed white tail from breeding farms - just something out of a horror movie -not all hunters sadly are ethical

    you are mistaken Barry..... these people are "collectors" not hunters...... there is zero hunting involved...some "shots/shooting" but zero hunting.

    in same vein is why shooting ducks over decoys is called..duck shooting....and stalking a small creek is jump shooting or stalking...completely different ball game...with duck and shotgun being where similarity ends

    No back legs for them.. probably didn't matter as I'd be surprised if they ate it.. probably more of a photo opp

    I know im flogging a dead horse but it genuinely makes me sick to my stomach watching that shit. I understand the business side but it literally defeats the entire purpose of hunting. As the old man always said, what you put in is what you get out - and that's not referring to money

    I remember reading years ago of a rich arab "trophy hunter"who was hosted at a NZ game reserve .Having picked his trophy the poor bloody thing was driven past him and he still missed!
    myself -i was in a taxidermists one day and spotted a full bod y wapiti mount -very impressive ,but what piqued my interest was two holes at antler bases . staff member appraoched me and i asked about it ,thinking maybe it was some sort of method for transporting big animals with horns .
    yep i was partially correct .this had been shot by the neer do well son of a malaysian billionare ,whom daddy had had a gutsful of and sent him to coventry money no object .It was practise to obtain antlers off farmed stags and more money you pay the bigger rack we'll fit on your trophy.

    Ileft the conversation and building at that -it offends my ethos on hunting .as for duck shooting -well I hunt in memory of my late father who died duckshooting and so ill keep that term but if you choose otherwise feel free .to clarify Dad suffered a stroke was comatosed and died a week later following a massive one-his 3rd.
