Good luck doing that these days!

Yeah I agree it certainly seems to be that way for alot of hunters and maybe that's why the trend is heading in that direction.
I could shoot any number of deer on a private station i have access to for the last 5 years but I have resisted so far as I don't want to or need to shoot deer that way.
I'm lucky in that I have the time and ability to keep myself and others in meat without having to go the easier option.
I appreciate that many others don't so whatever gets them venison on the table the quickest and possibly cheapest then I could see why that would be their preferred options.
