Its not all about the guys buying the pegs though is it, What about all the hard work that goes into a driven shooting. the beaters, the picker uppers, the dogs that have been trained to work, all the ground staff that look after the estate all year round. the upkeep of the estate is all paid for by the shooters. pheasants are bread for shooting and the UK is probably the best place to shoot them, the birds are not trapped in a cage they live a wild life and can fly off at any time, you might want to look into how the chicken you eat is manufactured locked in pens inside a huge factory never to see natural light. at least the birds have been fed everyday on natural feeds not pumped with water and bulking foods to be slaughtered and sold on a supermarket shelf. if i was fortunate enough to be able to attend these shoots i would. when it comes to the type of guns on a driven shoot this is etiquette of the sport. i have seen a few people using pump shotguns on rough shoots.
