If you pay for 5 birds, you'll take home 5 birds whether you
shoot them yourself or the "guide" does.

Hm.....

You say "They may as well be fenced in for all the chance they have."
Can't speak for anyone else, but it seems clear to me that this means
they are NOT fenced in. Hobbled? Chained to a stake? Left in the cage?
Wings clipped?

Raised in cages some of them don't have sense enough to
fly away from the dogs and they have to have a swift kick
before they'll fly away. It's called "boot and shoot"
hunting and it bears about as much resemblence to real wing
shooting as fishing in a pay lake bears to real trout
fishing.

Raised in cities (or out in the country, for that matter) some of them don't
have sense enough to wait until they find something they know something
about before speaking or writing. You give them a swift kick, they lick the
boot and hoot. It bears about as much resemblance to real discussion as
open mike night at the village hall.

You ever actually see a pheasant?
