About this hunt
Muntjac are very interesting to stalk because they are so small and they are always moving, they do not sit down to ruminate in plain sight like nearly every other deer can do from time to time. They are either hidden or moving, and it’s not uncommon to have a surprise encounter at 10 to 20 metres! Stalking is charged per outing, but we recommend booking a full day for successful hunt. A TYPICAL DAY: On the day, the RDV is made either at the accommodation or directly on the grounds, either on or before first light. Your guide will give a safety briefing and any advice from experiences as well as etiquette and best practices. A shooting competency test on to a target emulating real shooting situations may be carried out for novices prior to your booking. This can allow you to familiarise yourself with the estate rifle and help us gauge what scenarios to go for on the day. Once we are ready to go, with the wind in the right direction and the plan in mind, your guide will keep a look out and scout for any animal movements as we stealthily advance. When a deer of appropriate description presents itself, you will be guided and advised to a position in which you can safely take the shot, whether that be standing and off of shooting stick, in a high seat from a hide or laying prone on the ground. You must reload the rifle without delay and observe the situation until it becomes clear. Your guide will advise on what to do from there onward. Each outing usually lasts between 2 and 3 hours, depending on the objective, cull plan and success. The evening outings are usually similar to the morning’s, but we can sometimes take you to another property, use a different method or for an alternative quarry. The package includes 2 stalks, a shot test, estate rifle use, guiding and the first beast up to a representative head. Any top tier/ trophy bucks are £550 flat rate for those packages. Single stalks are available upon request at £275

First time stalking chinese water deer - but it won't be my last
I spent three excellent days in a variety of terrain settings stalking chinese water deer. I found Tom extremely knowledgeable and we saw plenty of deer and put quite a few in the larder. I was impressed with the professionalism and safe approach taken by Tom.
Nothing
Great Stalk, great local knowledge.
Excellent knowledge of hunting ground, very professional approach, great stalk and great guild. Met my expectations fully. I had asked for a good Cull Roe Buck but not a medal on this stalk and this is exactly what I was presented with. Tom re-arranged my stalk a day before due to coming down with Covid Thank you Tom and Dave
