Running your own Shoot

In this book all aspects of shoot management are examined, from calculation of the realistic costs, finding suitable ground, organising a shooting syndicate to planning a shooting day. Other vital issues that are discussed are rearing and releasing game, vermin control and habitat management. The book makes you fully aware of the day to day hard work involved, but also highlights the satisfaction that can be gained from running your own shoot.

In this second edition, David Hudson has fully revised the text to take into account new regulations and practices. Running Your Own Shoot is an indispensable guide for anyone contemplating doing so.
