       Tame Birds?

       This is a subject that I brought up a few years ago in the GC
       Gun club that i was in. Now i myself don't shoot phesants as
       they are really scarce round my area and it's a completly
       different type of shooting that i'm just not into.
       Is the releasing of "tame birds" year on year a good idea or no?
       My Question was more to the point of asking wether the rounding
       up/ catching the wild birds and observing their health a better
       thing to do rather than releasing as I see it "tame" phesants
       into the wild.
       I was laughed at and the sec said it was alot easier to just
       keep releasing birds into the wild. Remember im the only one
       along with one other fella that actually shoot vermin.
       So i left
       Anyway im wondering if any of you lads have come across this?

       i think you are on the ball its just targets they are looking
       dont want to put the work in some driven shoots they put them
       out the night befor an the guns cant even take what they shoot

       I think it is a sin and a very lazy way of making sport . I use
       the word sport very loosly!
       I'd say there are many GC's across ireland North&South that are
       doing this!
