"These are people who are really, really serious about shooting things."

Well, if you say so, but it looks like a lot of wasted bullets and aviation fuel to me!
'You don’t want just any yahoo shooting from the helicopter – we’ve seen inexperienced people accidentally shoot the rotors crashing copters or flying into power lines.'

    Boar hunting used to be the sport of Kings, "the hunters leave the carcasses where they lay": this is just a waste.

    "Or flying into power lines"

    Try Helicopter Tree Pruning around live power lines...

    "...this is just a waste."

    Indeed. Surely they could land to collect them and donate the carcasses?

    And it was the sport of kings when men had backbone, and at least faced them on the ground. It's somewhat degrading to call this 'sport'.

    Typical Shermans, this pretty much sums it up.

    I'm of the opinion that if you shoot it, you eat it. (with the obvious exception of vermin control like foxes and rats).

    Killing thing for fun isn't sport, it's slaughter, and I class myself as a hunter.
