i will NOT shoot at a deer that is moving any faster than a fast walk/ trot. Don't have full confidence in my shooting abilities to make sure i hit the deer in a kill zone.

So i can go out and shoot a limit of waterfowl off the water infront of a conservation officer and not get in trouble for it.
So is legal always ethical? Not in my opinion. And we don't have that law in Missouri, my mistake.

Turkeys are the same way. We get them flying and shoot them out of the air. Its alot easier in the fall that way because they dont like to come to calls.

I couldn't disagree more. And it is legal to shoot ducks on the water where I'm at, so by God im doin it. If you have what it takes to work that duck into your spread, cut it. And if you don't, cut 'em when they're passing.
As for the correlation between the two meanings "ethically" and "legally," thats a whole 'nother topic. Go talk to some of the "experienced" hunters in the bowhunting/deerhunting forums about hunting deer over cornpiles

And in CA it is not illegal to shoot them sitting, and Ksfowler, firstly you would need a place that would hold birds long enough for you to sneek up on them like that to make your point valid, the law is more for the duck that lands in your spread well your back is turned
