About this product

Product Information

The sport of game shooting has come a long way since that day in a distant shooting field when an unremembered squire decided that to shoot a game-bird as it was driven towards him was a more sporting challenge than to walk it up and drop it as it blundered up from the bracken. In the new version of game shooting, the birds must be good ones and the breed of gun is prepared to pay for quality shooting and thus keep alive the ancient techniques, save the great estates, maintain the keepers and perpetuate a sport which is admired throughout the world. This book, which includes contributions from experts on some individual topics, looks at various aspects of shooting, such as the quarry, the action, the role of the shoot captain, beater and picker-up, and how to deal with the bag.
