" A comprehensive and knowledgeable guide, dealing with a wide range of game species as well as the practicalities and economics of making a shoot pay for itself. "M.I.L. Roberts is primarily concerned with getting the best possible shooting with the least possible outlay of human resources and finance. Many shoots, he believes, waste money. As a result show owners, paying guests and syndicate guns ofter get poor value for money, with shoot managers not infrequently making the same expensive mistakes year after year. Although mainly concerned with the management of pheasant shooting, M.I.L. Roberts also discusses partridge, grouse, blackgame, capercaillie, snipe, woodcock, duck, geese, hare, and pigeon. A very broad spectrum of shoot-related matters is tackled with verve and humor seldom found in such books." Chapters include:- How much shooting?; Gamekeepers; Eggs and laying stock; Rearing and release; Game strips and feeding; Shooting day preparation; The shooting day; Poachers; Predators; Costs and revenue; Syndicates and paying guests.…
