UK Hunting

Hunting has been a part of British culture for centuries, and today many people still enjoy this traditional pastime. We specialise in deer stalking, pigeon shooting, rough shooting and wildfowling, whilst there are also opportunities to hunt foxes, hares, and other small game animals.

Many people also enjoy shooting clay pigeons or participating in other forms of target practice with shotguns and air rifles. Hunting is a great way to connect with nature and get some exercise in the fresh open air of natural England, Scotland or Wales.

It can also be a social activity, as friends and family often gather together to go on hunting trips making unforgettable memories as a family. Hunting is still very popular in the UK and enjoyed by people of all ages.

 

Types of Hunting

There are many different types of hunting, each with its own unique challenges and rewards. Today's main types of hunting in the UK are deer stalking, rough shooting, walked-up shooting, wildfowling, pigeon shooting and big game hunting.

 

Deer Stalking

 

Deer stalking is the practice of quietly observing and tracking deer in their natural habitat. When deer hunting, we use techniques to get close enough to the deer to get a clear shot while minimising the chances of being detected. To do this, stalkers must have a good understanding of deer behaviour and movement patterns. They must also be patient and extremely quiet, as even the slightest noise can send a deer running.

Many of our deer stalkers are helping to regulate populations on large estates, and we have written permission from landowners to stalk grounds throughout the United Kingdom and Northern Ireland. When we shoot deer, we always aim for a clean shot to minimise any unnecessary suffering and treat these wild mammals with the respect they deserve.

Deer stalking can be an exciting and challenging form of hunting, requiring great skill and planning. However, it also provides a unique opportunity to view these beautiful animals up close in their natural environment.

At shooting SH, deer stalkers will have the opportunity to hunt a range of Deer across multiple UK locations. Typically deer species found include:

  • Fallow Deer

  • Roe Deer

  • Red Deer

  • Sika Deer

  • Muntjac

  • Chinese Water Deer

 

Rough Shooting

 

Rough shooting has been a popular sport in the UK for centuries and is still enjoyed by many today. Rough shooting typically occurs on farmland, where gamebirds such as pheasants and partridges are raised for shooting. The sport can be challenging and rewarding, requiring a keen eye and quick reflexes. In addition to being a great way to enjoy the outdoors, rough shooting also helps to control vermin populations and keep farmland healthy.

Pest control is essential for many farmers who can lose crops if they do not manage local populations. Birds, rabbits, and foxes can cause serious damage to crops and reduce the output of our farms

By carefully managing the number of birds shot each year, rough shooters can help to ensure that gamebird populations remain strong. As a result, rough shooting plays an important role in conservation.

 

Walked Up Shooting

 

Walked Up Shooting is a type of shooting where the game birds are flushed out of cover by a line of beaters and then shot by the waiting hunters.

When we use our dogs, a variety of game birds and other wildlife will scramble out of cover. We can use a variety of firearms, but shotguns are mostly used due to their larger spread.

This type of shooting requires great coordination between the beaters and the guns, and it can be a very exciting way to hunt. One of the benefits of walked-up shooting is that it allows for a more challenging hunt, as the game birds are not confined to one area and can be flushed out from anywhere.

You can shoot pheasant, pigeons, duck and woodcocks all in one day of rough shooting. If we are hunting in a woodland, the variety of species can be impressive.

This can make for a really memorable trip, and you can test your shooting skills against different types of wildlife. In addition, walked-up shooting also allows for more shots to be taken, as there are often many game birds flushed out at once.

However, this type of shooting is not without its risks, as there is always the potential for accidents when guns and beaters are working in close proximity. For this reason, it is important to have a well-trained team and to follow all safety guidelines when undertaking a walked-up shoot.

 

Wildfowling

 

Wildfowling is the practice of shooting wild birds for sport. It has been practised for centuries, and today many different types of wild birds can be hunted. Some of the most popular include pigeons, ducks, geese, woodcock, grouse and pheasants.

Wildfowlers typically use shotguns to shoot their prey, often setting up decoys to attract birds to their location. In addition to being a popular sport, wildfowling also provides an important food source for many people. Duck and geese meat is considered to be very tasty, and it can be cooked in a variety of different ways.

For those who enjoy hunting, wildfowling is a great way to get outdoors and enjoy some time in nature while also putting food on the table.

 

Respecting close season

We may have a different open season for different birds across the UK so we always check what is fair game at our locations. In the closed season, we are not allowed to hunt a specific bird, and this plays an important part in population regeneration.

We also take much care not to shoot any threatened species when wildfowling in the United Kingdom. 

 

Pigeon Shooting

 

Pigeon shooting is a popular sport in the UK. It involves shooting at pigeons that are released from a trap, typically with a shotgun. The sport can be traced back to medieval times and remains a popular pastime among Hunting enthusiasts. There are a number of benefits to pigeon shooting, including the fact that it helps to control the population of birds and improve crop harvest.

We can also hunt wood pigeons with our dogs flushing them from the woods or farms with woodland areas. This will provide an enjoyable day out for those hunters who participate.

 

Hunting UK

 

Here at Shooting SH we have access to over 100'000 acres of land spread throughout the United Kingdom. If you want to shoot deer and learn how to stalk deer or get involved in walked up hunts, we have a variety of options to suit.

We can help you acquire your shotgun certificates and provide training at every step of the way if you are a newcomer to handling firearms in the UK.

Hunting in the UK is a fantastic opportunity to get out and really connect with the natural environment. We are lucky on these islands to have such a range of wildlife, and some of the best, most challenging game birds visit our shores.

 

Experience a Hunt

Hunting is a unique and adrenaline-pumping experience. It takes great skill, stealth, and knowledge of the animal you are pursuing. The thrill of the hunt can be addicting, as you never know when you will get your next chance to take an animal.

Hunting also requires patience, as you may sit in a tree stand for hours without seeing anything. But when you finally get a shot and see the animal drop, it is all worth it.

The feeling of success is indescribable. Hunting is not just about killing an animal but about being one with nature and enjoying the beauty of the outdoors. It is an experience that everyone should have at least once in their lifetime.

We offer a wide range of services and hunts in all the most popular hunting types. We have various hunting locations throughout the UK that will give you the best hunting experience possible. Take a look at the types of hunting we offer and where they are located below.
