FallinG birds
The Shoot cannot accept any responsibility for damage cause to property or injury, i.e. vehicles or person, from falling
birds. It is often the case that in a flush of birds it may be difficult to know for certain who has shot each bird. Yourself,
your guests and vehicles attend the shooting field at your own risk from falling birds.

Fines and taxiderMy
We have released a number of white pheasant and white partridge at Ripley Castle and Mountgarret. If you shoot either,
a fine of £25 will be levied and donated to our Charity Fund. If you would like the bird or any bird you shoot mounting,
the cost is £50 for our Charity Fund and £100 for the taxidermist. We have a good stock already prepared for you to take
one with you on the day. Fines may also be levied by the team on the day for habitual use of mobile phones and other
trivial offences!

FootWear
There should be nowhere on our Shoot where you will get your feet wet if you are only wearing boots. That is of course
unless you wish to cross a stream, I have not worn wellingtons on our Shoot for over ten years and recommend boots and
gaiters to be an ideal combination.

Four Wheel drive courtesy vehicle
As more and more guns are travelling some distance to shoot with us, often in a normal two wheel drive vehicle which
is unsuitable for travelling around the shoot. We now have available with a driver a long wheel base Land Rover Station
Wagon on each of our Shoots at Ripley Castle, Mountgarret and Eagle Hall/Moors. These vehicles will seat up to five
passengers comfortably.

Each vehicle is available at no cost to the guns and their guests. However prior booking is recommended to ensure space
is available. Your dogs may travel in our Keepers vehicles.

Four Wheel drive vehicles
There will always be adequate parking to leave your car all day and everyone is welcome to bring their own four wheeled
drive vehicle, there is no restriction to the number on the day, however I prefer no-one to be on their own, unless this
is necessary for private phone calls etc. If you travel to the Shoot by car, there is normally space available in the other
guns vehicles for you to travel with them or in our courtesy Land Rover. However please bear in mind that not everyone
wishes to give a wet muddy dog a lift in their vehicle so your dogs would travel with my Keepers.

Four Wheel drive vehicle hire

Guests, shootinG and non-shootinG
Guns are most welcome to bring either shooting or non-shooting guests, Ladies or Gentlemen, just to enjoy the day, as a
day with the Shoot is just as enjoyable for non shooting guests as it is for the guns. It is important that any gun or guest
gun with limited shooting experience must be accompanied by a friend who is an experienced shot or an experienced
instructor or loader in order to assist them on the day. It is also important to ensure that any shooting guest has the
required £10 Million, personal liability insurance in place prior to the shoot day. If you are bringing a non shooting guest
some prior notice is necessary in order to plan the catering for the day.

Gun cleaninG
At the end of each shoot day facilities are available for all guns to be cleaned. Although this service is offered by our
shoot staff, you may use the facilities to clean your own gun if you wish. A small gratuity may guarantee you will get
your own gun back!

Guns Fielded / tarGet baGs
The majority of our days are sold by the gun per day to individual guns or small parties and it may not always be possible
to sell every gun on each day. We will field a team provided we have six guns or more; however we reserve the option
to adjust the target bag in line with the number of guns fielded.
