Maybe it's just me, but I'd rather not hunt if I was doing it like that. It doesn't seem to be "hunting" to me, but target shooting with live targets. Not very "sporting".

Hoa Hao, If the pheasants are raised by private sources on farms, like catfish, why shoot them in the first place? If you really like to eat them, just buy one, dress it, and eat it. Why use them for target shooting? Does it make you feel more like a man? I hunted pheasants one time in Kansas, and almost any idiot can shoot one down with the pattern of a shotgun.

There is, absolutely, no reason for anyone to hunt an animal unless his family is hungry, and has no other protein food source. The argument of preventing over crowding of an animal specie is a farce. Nature took care of that a long time before man came along, and doesn't need man to use that excuse.
