Deer Hunting UK
Deer stalking is virtually the only form of control, or culling, for the six wild or feral species of deer at large in the UK. The six species are Red Deer, Roe Deer, Fallow Deer, Sika Deer, Muntjac and Water Deer and there have never been more deer at large or more widely distributed in the UK than there are now.
Deer Stalking
We undertake accompanied Deer stalking throughout the UK and Europe for both rifle shooting and photographic purposes. Selective culling is undertaken during the buck and doe seasons under the guidance of your fully qualified stalking guide. Sustainable management plans are set in place to ensure that our stalking grounds are never over visited or exploited.
Roe Deer
Red Deer and Roe Deer are now present in several parts of Wales, a country from which both had been absent as wild animals for several centuries. Fallow Deer have been at large in many parts of the UK for at least 1,000 years, added to by more recent escapes, but the other three species have solely originated from ornamental collections and deer farms, principally from Woburn Abbey, escaping through damaged fences or sometimes by deliberate release.
A number of deer and wild boar escaped in southern England following damage to fences by the hurricane of 1987. Apart from the stalking of Red and Sika Deer on the open hillsides of Scotland and the Lake District which takes place in daylight, most deer stalking takes place in the first and last two hours of daylight and most people never come into contact with it although it occurs almost everywhere.
