Default RE: Wingshooting Sport? Or not?

Msg,I'm not gonna deny the fact I've killed a few in the air but it was NOT by choice.The birds I have killed airborne were shot and wounded by another hunter and yes a few times by myself making a poor shot!With all the new innovations on todays modern day turkey guns shooting at airborne birds certainly defeats the purpose!Obviously harvesting a wounded bird is a given in doing what you can to recover a cripple and taking them out of the air sometimes is the case,but something like setting up on a roost site with the intention of shooting at them as they fly out of the roost is about as ethical to me as poaching!![:'(]This in many cases results in crippled birds and certainly shows no class in respect for the bird we so much enjoy hunting!!!
