I have 7 guns available for a walk 1 stand 1 day on the 1st of feb shooting pheasants, partridge, woodcock (plenty of them!!), snipe ( lots on 2 of the drives), ducks and geese (with a bit of luck!). This is on a driven shoot so plenty of birds around should be looking at around a 50-60 birds, tea and coffee provided in our shoot room just bring your lunch. The cost for the day is only £60. PM me if interested first come first served!

 

All the best, THAR

Think some need some clarification >

Game and Grouse Shooting

 

 

For other game birds, there are individual shooting seasons that you need to be aware of.

  • Pheasants: The pheasant shooting season lasts from October 1st to February 1st in England, Scotland and Wales. In Northern Ireland, it lasts from October 1st to January 31st.
  • Partridge: The partridge shooting season lasts from September 1st to February 1st in England, Scotland and Wales. Like the pheasant shooting season, it closes a day earlier in Northern Ireland.
  • Ptarmigan: The ptarmigan shooting season lasts from August 12th to December 12th. The birds are found mostly in Scotland, so there is no shooting season in Northern Ireland.
  • Blackgame: The blackgame shooting season lasts from August 20th to December 10th in England, Scotland and Wales. They aren't found in Northern Ireland, so there is no shooting season there.
  • Common snipe: The common snipe shooting season lasts from August 12th to January 31st on the UK mainland, and from September 1st to January 31st in Northern Ireland.
  • Jack snipe: The Jack snipe shooting season lasts from September 1st to January 31st in Northern Ireland. The bird is protected at all times in England, Scotland and Wales, which makes it illegal to shoot or hunt it all year round.
  • Woodcock: The woodcock shooting season lasts from October 1st to January 31st in England, Wales and Northern Ireland. In Scotland, the woodcock shooting season starts on September 1st and closes at the same time as the rest of the UK.
  • Ducks and geese: Inland, the shooting season lasts from September 1st to January 31st in England, Scotland and Wales, and this is the same in Northern Ireland. If the HMV is less than ordinary spring tides, the shooting season closes on February 20th on the UK mainland.
  • Coots and moorhen: The shooting season lasts from September 1st to January 31st across England, Scotland and Wales. In Northern Ireland, the birds are protected at all times, so it's illegal to shoot them at any time in the year.
  • Golden Plover: The Golden Plover shooting season lasts from September 1st to January 1st all over the UK (including Northern Ireland).
  • Curlew: The curlew shooting season lasts from September 1st to January 31st in Northern Ireland. It is illegal to shoot curlews in England, Scotland and Wales, as they are protected at all times.

If you stick to the letter of the law the only people that are allowed to shoot pheasant on the 1st are gamekeepers and his appointed guns that are mopping up wounded birds from the last days shooting the previous day

Well I thank you for correcting me, good job I don't go for pheasants after mid Jan, I just went by the dates printed on sporting gun calender.

Cheers
