Spr1985 Posted November 20, 2023 Report Share Posted November 20, 2023 I’m gobsmacked that no one has responded to this, the amount of times I’ve seen people wanting shooting on the forum and when it’s placed neatly on a plate in front of the masses…..not one response! I’m baffled !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From now onwards is the best time to get out looking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll go a drive tomorrow and ask about there’s a few shoots around there, if you are interested in doing some beating it might help you get your foot in the door, if so, try Somerford estate or Stretton Estate, both belong to the Monkton’s, also give Chillington Hall, just south of Brewood a try. There was a farmer J Sands on Horsebrook Lane, Brewood, they grew a lot of rape and also had a shoot run by his son Peter Sands, worth a knock on his door.
