OK
I work in Richmond park and one of the sadder aspects of my job is to keep the deer numbers down.

One afternoon we realised we had left our shotguns at home. The work had to be done that day and we didn't have time to go back, so my friend had the rather bizarre solution of battering them with his artificial limb! The carcasses could then be stacked up and dealt with afterwards.

Anyway, in order to keep a tab on the numbers, each time we battered one of the animals we put a little asterisk on the side of our weapon.

It was all going well when, halfway through the job, by partner stopped and looked at me in astonishment.

"You do realise what we have here, don't you?" he asked.
"No?" I replied, "What's that?"

"We have a PART-STARRED CULL LEG".

And indeed we did.

to add....
a bit of pedantisism (?!?) you don't cull deer with a shotgun (you use a rifle (or artificial limb))

.
We used a shot gun. (And subsequently, an artificial leg).

@Studentken
To be a real pedant, the word you were searching for was 'pedantry'.

Athangyew.
