Deer Stalking

What is Deer Stalking ?

View Locations

Deer stalking is a British term for the stealthy pursuit of deer on foot with intention of hunting for meat, for leisure/trophy, or to control their numbers. As part of wildlife management, just as with rabbiting and boar hunting, the aim of deer stalking is to help reduce crop damage and to obtain venison.

The deerstalker typically uses a high-powered rifle fitted with a telescopic sight and stalks deer at night or during the day. In addition to being an effective method of deer control, deer stalking can also be an enjoyable way to spend time outdoors. For those interested in deer hunting, deer stalking can provide an opportunity to pursue game in a challenging and rewarding way.

Deer stalking is an activity that many deer hunters enjoy. There are a few things to keep in mind when deer stalking, however, in order to ensure a successful hunt. First and foremost, it is important to scout the area before deer stalking. This will help you to find the best location for a high seat, as well as identify any areas where deer stalking would be unsafe due to farm traffic or public access.

Deer Stalking England

Deer hunting has a long and storied history in England. In the past, hunting was a popular pastime for the aristocracy, and it was common for kings and queens to engage in the sport.

But times have changed and Deer stalking is now available to everyone. Whether you are an experienced hunter or a newcomer to the sport, there are plenty of opportunities to enjoy the beauty and excitement of deer hunting in our amazing contryside

You will not have to travel the length of the country to find game, and the variety of our locations make for exciting weekends away with new challenges and terrain.

Deer Stalking Scotland

One of the benefits of deer hunting in Scotland is the stunning natural beauty of the country's wilderness areas. Scotland is known for its rugged, picturesque landscapes, and hunting here can be a truly unforgettable experience. 

Scotland is home to some beautiful Deer and every Deer-stalking enthusiast really has to try a trip up north. 

We have many locations over Scotland, such as Dumfries & Galloway and Peebleshire. But for a truly unique experience, native Red Deer stalking on 22'000 acres of land in the Isle of Skye can be a memory you save for a lifetime. 

Do I Need My Own Equipment?

You can bring your own equipment, or simply let us provide rifles and basic equipment.

Some people prefer to let us provide the equipment if you only stalk deer on occasion, if you stalk deer regularly, you may have your own rifles set up and configured to your own taste.

Popular items people like to bring themselves include:

  • Binoculars
  • Camouflage Clothing
  • Lens Wipes
  • Torches
  • Knife Sets
  • Sniper Ghillie Suits
  • Bubbles (For Checking Wind Direction)

You should ensure you have taken all the necessary preparation for your deer stalk. This should include ensuring you have all the basic items in your backpack and have familiarised yourself with any land regulations for the stalk location.

Is Rifle Training Provided?

If you are new to deer stalking, we can provide a shooting lesson and training prior to the stalk. This can happen on the morning of your trip or in advance.

Here you will learn all about the safety precautions you need to take when handling a rifle, how to fire the rifle, how to reload the rife and safety elements that must be adhered to at all times.

We take safety extremely seriously and as a beginner on your 1st trip, you may wish to be accompanied by an experienced deer stalker. Here you will learn all about deer stalking and tap into our many years of experience both handling rifles and stalking deer.

 

How Long Does a Deer Hunt Last?

Typically, a hunt will last a full morning, a full afternoon, or all day. It is up to you and your party how long a deer hunt will last, although we will not hunt throughout the night unless a licence has been acquired.

Lots of our customers decide to stay for a few days or over the weekend. This will give you the most time out in our beautiful natural landscapes.

 

Deer Hunting Tips

Additionally, use natural features to mask your approach. For example, a bubbling stream can hide the sound of your footsteps in woodland. By following these tips, you can deer stalk successfully and enjoy your deer hunting experience. 

More useful tips;

 

  • Scout the ground before stalking
  • Use natural features to mask your approach
  • Stay downwind of your quarry
  • Wait until weather has improved
  • Wear loose-fitting clothing - silent and waterproof
  • Be patient and quiet
