Nope. Had never done any type of hunting until I went hawking. I get into all sorts of bother over at the falconry forums when I say I'm a veggie! I only agree with hunting when the kill is done in a sporting way and the prey is used for food and not wasted. I also only think you should eat meat if you can catch, kill and prepare it yourself, but that's a whole other thread!! If I start hunting more regularly I may even make a nice wee Rabbit stew for me and the family

Enjoy yourself and let us know how it goes. I take it it's not raining in Yorkshire? Hasn't stopped up here all day!
