If we didn't shoot the Grouse then surely that in itself would help conserve the species.Conserving them purely so that they can be shot by rich townees with nothing else better to do appears to me to be barbaric.
Local farmers popping them off to put in the dinner pot to feed the family I have no problem with but the Land Rover driving ,corduroy trousered,checked shirt ,flat cap and barbour wearing brigade descending on jockland hisses me right off.
You'll be advocating shooting a hoodie season next...now come to think of it..lol..only a joke...before I receive numerous complaints...
