What tw says. In addition, market "hunters" at night simply knocked the birds out of the trees by the thousands or netted roosts. Shooting them would have been a way expensive method of gathering and cut heavy into the profit.

Shooters proper probably took a decimal of a percent

I've always wondered what compels "sportsmen" to shoot things like bats and swallows. But then, just killin' stuff always feels great, dunnit?
