I don't think it should be usedduring actualhunting. If anything maybe allowed on the off seasons so that a hunter can posibly pattern an animal, but then again I guess it would be a matter of, would it be considered fair chase and ethical. It would be neat though to be able to float one on some type of balloon over a hunting area to get an idea of the population. BUT in my opinion, it would take away from the hard work hunters put in the field, to actually take pride in their success.
