Some ideas for a "fair chase" charter. Not meaning that being outside this is illegal or can not be done, as fair chase is a rather more ideal or restricted attitude to a hunt. Also just ideas ...

Not use of artificial lighting or spotlights, or night vision devices.
No artificial or mechanical, recorded etc calls (eg use a manual call to call in a deer or lion or whatever - but no recorded sounds or sounds created by artificial means not requiring skill)
No shooting from a vehicle or near a vehicle, say 200 plus metres, or from a motor powered boat.
No aerial spotting of fame
No high fences. Fencing should permit the free movement of game
No shooting over waterholes
No use of traps
All animals should be born and bred in free chase conditions.
Shoot your own animal (of course!)
While not strictly on topic, shoot only mature specimens
Baiting - baiting only for certain animals and personal checking of baits ie not have an army checking baits for you
Shooting only at a range where the animal has a chance to detect the hunter ie no 400 - 1,000 metre "sniping"

Just some ideas for a "true" fair chase hunt.
