Dunkield Posted April 25, 2011 Report Share Posted April 25, 2011 Why not just book a day at the grouse for you and your mates? :blink: :blink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustJon Posted April 25, 2011 Report Share Posted April 25, 2011 Full team days? That's the price for 5 or 6 people? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunkield Posted April 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 25, 2011 A full team for pheasant or partridge would be 10, I am not sure about grouse - if you are thinking of booking it, I can make the 15th Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustJon Posted April 25, 2011 Report Share Posted April 25, 2011 I'll talk to my boss, see what the corporate purse is like Lol - I think not. I might get a days pheasant later in the year out of them, why are grouse so much better/more expensive ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davie_M Posted April 25, 2011 Report Share Posted April 25, 2011 might just book a few after a visit to the bank with the 12g Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scolopax Posted April 25, 2011 Report Share Posted April 25, 2011 A full team will be 8 normally, sometimes 9. May seem expensive (and all those days are, there are cheaper out there if you can bypass the agent and go direct), but there are alot of people out there with that kind of cash to splash. All of those days will sell and many more like them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul T Posted April 25, 2011 Report Share Posted April 25, 2011 Very tempting, but it's a LOT of money :blink:! If I booked a day at those prices I could almost guarantee that on the day the bank statement landed the wife would have the locks changed before I got home from work !

Radar_uk Posted April 25, 2011 Report Share Posted April 25, 2011 Is that through EJ Churchill's ? Looks very similar to the prices they had up when I was there the other day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bleeh Posted April 25, 2011 Report Share Posted April 25, 2011 90 quid a bird for grouse - Ha ha ha ha ha That's been the price for a few years now. You should look at Ptarmigan shooting if you think that's bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The keepers have to work very very hard to keep them alive and there is only a certain percentage you can shoot and maintain your breeding population. The maths looks staggering but there won't be huge profits made out of it amazing as it sounds. Its a rich mans sport but there are a surprising number of them about Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
