You could make arguments both ways, especially for nocturnal game. Could say, no lights, and contend with more risky wounding shots. Are the animals nocturnal because they don't get any peace and quiet during normal hours, for a number of reasons, or by nature. What are the legal hunting hours? If they are all night, and no lights, you depend much more on moon and/or snow cover. If the climate dictates never any snow, then you're down to a week to 10 days of moonlight, depending on how thick the clouds are.
Would say it comes down to the legality and how comfortable you are with hunting with lights. If legal, and you've made identification, you have a much higher pecentage of making a clean kill with light. Can be a contencious subject, and I'll agree with Phil that it can be a can of worms.
Like, if you've got a fence around 100,000 hectar, lots of people say you're on a canned hunt. Heck, 100,000 hectar is a chunk of ground. Does size matter? Of course, but you have to put it in context. What about natural and man made barriers, whether water or highways or cliffs, etc. Make any difference?
I dunno, sometimes you just gotta live with yourself and your ethics. Waidmannsheil, Dom.
