I'm not sure why all the fuss about this subject. I personally find no "sport" in it at all. It definitely requires no skill in my opinion, even with a bow. I mean some dogs are fenced in people's back yard and even come to you when called. Seems like shooting fish in a barrel to me. Dogs are easily baited, and you could claim that your bait is just "scraps" from supper last night that you threw out. grin
