I personally have never taken a trophy class deer from a machine as a shooter or pilot. No. It I do not consider it to be a trophy. I have seen my fair share of stags that would go well over the DS considered the minimum standard, left for another day and another hunter.
I have also unfortunately seen plenty hung in a chiller with their antlers both hard and soft thrown aside to be sold later.
However the fact that I do not consider that a trophy animal shot from a machine is a trophy does not mean, it is not a trophy to someone else. Each to their own I say, and if it is done legally, I do not consider it my business, even if I think they are fooling themselves.
A well thought out answer here 'R 93.
I am not adopting the moral high ground over this.
These are moral challenges that people do face.
Should the "Big four" be open to competing helicopter crews???
