Winter Stalking

Outing fees: £295 per day or £150 per half day

Price includes one stalker plus vehicle and all stalking costs. Transport is provided from a mutually pre agreed place and time. Stalking is for female deer of all species with calves/followers at foot.

There are no extra charges, this is a flat rate regardless of what is shot. Species include red, roe, fallow & sika deer. All shots taken are to some extent selective and in some places with more emphasis on this than others.

Approximately 35,000 acres of stalking to choose from covering 5 counties. The variable terrain includes open hill, forest and mixed lowland farmland.

Winter stalking begins on 21st October and runs until early to mid March. During this time the red fallow & sika female seasons finish on 15th February after which it is roe only. During the winter stalking period it is still possible to shoot fallow bucks and in a couple of areas red stags where they are considered to be in an ‘enclosed’ plantation. With prior notice we are happy to try for the above and simply add-on trophy fees for each animal shot.

All carcasses remain the property of the estate or Woodmill Shootings but may be purchased, butchered & vac packed on site. Tipping, although entirely personal, is usually based on £40 for a whole day.

Accommodation is sometimes available at Woodmill on a DBB basis or locally in pubs.
