    Deaded. Still had to get there, bone it, carry it. It was good for me. I'm not going to be shamed. Sometimes I'm a hunter, sometimes I'm a shooter. Depends on context. This time a charity wanted 23kg of venison ...

    I hope my opinions havnt come across as shaming anyone. I think how you are using the thermal and what you are doing with the meat should be an example of really good use.

    I do though think that as a group, we are not good at sitting down and working out what is appropriate and what sensible limits we should put on novel ideas/tech etc. So that its not abused and so that it doesn't have a future negative impact.

    Your posts, by the way, have me very close to buying a Sytong clip on as a tool to control hares, and also so that I can accurately gauge my wild animal populations and manage them. Whether that be continue not to shoot, or decide to start harvesting.

    As I said, Im not against them. Im just super cautious of and can see how they can have an unwanted impact.
