Young Shots

Pictured here is Ben, aged 11, who is a BASC junior member. This was his first go at shooting pests and after much practice he bagged two greys, a pigeon and a rabbit.  

Dylan, age 8, had a great time improving his shooting skills on a clay pigeon shoot on the family farm in Norfolk.  

Hamish, age 12, pictured with his first ever geese. He brought them down with a right and left on a very successful day on home ground in Outer Hebrides.  

Tom Boardman, 14, from Lancashire, shows off his first pigeon, shot without the aid of decoys or pigeon magnets. Just him, his dog, a new 12 bore and a hide. The first of many to come, no doubt.

Here is young Ollie Vosper, with his first pheasant, shot on the beaters day. He managed his 20 bore superbly. Well done!  

Seven year-old James Bateman is pictured on a recent grey squirrel purge in woodland in Berkshire last February. We’re delighted that James is already learning about wildlife conservation and pest control. Keep up the good work!
