Day Tuition - ʻIn Fieldʼ

Daniel can provide first class coaching on Grouse, Partridge & Pheasant days all over the UK.  Novice and experienced shots are catered for and are pre discussed with daniel prior to the days shooting. All equipment can be provided if needed including gun hire, cartridges, clothing, accessories & 4x4 Transport. If your looking to take your game shooting to the next level give Daniel a call.

Course Of 6 Lessons

Great for beginners to the sport or looking to take your shooting ability to another level whether you are interested in game or clay shooting or both! Daniel will take you through all the basic areas of shooting techniques, safety and etiquette over the 6 lessons. By the end of the course you will be more than competent with the safe handling of a shotgun and have a good starting structure for a solid shooting technique.
