Running Your Own Shoot by David Hudson
"Running Your Own Shoot" is essential for anyone who is contemplating setting up a private shoot. The creation of a shoot adds to the pleasure of shooting and brings it within reach of those without a fortune to spend on the sport. 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. Since its first publication, quite a lot has changed and David Hudson has fully revised the text to take into account new regulations and practices. "Running Your Own Shoot" is an indispensible guide for anyone already running a shoot or for anyone contemplating doing so.
