Shooting Pheasants at the Shakenhurst Estate Shoot

It’s a beautiful November morning in Worcestershire at the Shakenhurst Estate shoot and Ian Harford is shooting pheasants.
Welcome to Great British Shooting on Team Wild TV.
Late November, early December is an ideal time for a driven pheasant shoot day. The weather is cold and the ground is covered in a solid frost, but there are stunning blue clear skies. The trees are all clear of leaves, the birds are holding nicely on the feeders and they offer some good sports.
Driven days like this isn’t just about the shooting, is about the camaraderie, spending time with friends and having some friendly competition. Stealing your fellow guns birds really adds to the day. That's part of the day of shooting, it's not just about the great sports, great environment and great company, it’s also about being a little bit cheeky with your sporting birds.
There is a good mix of landscape at Shakenhurst estate. Woodland, field, parkland, there is a strong variety of birds in both style and species. There have been some lovely pheasants and some cracking partridges, moving away from the trees, changing directions and making some very fast targets.
This is Ian’s favourite time of the year. As the winter season begins the woodland is a stunning mixture of colours. The area is truly alive with life. Getting to spend time shooting, enjoying time with a group of like-minded people is what life should all be about. It's not just about us at shooting, it's all the guys behind the scenes, the beaters, all the pickers up, the woodland is a hive of activity from the spaniels, Labradors and retrievers. It really is a community type event brings everybody in the countryside.

Looked like a great day, and think of the Estate being able to gainfully employ a lot of folk for the day. Good for the Economy and good for the Countryside. Well done

An excellent video, but I prefer my pheasants “low,slow and plenty of them”

Somebody needs to show your man how to close a gun on a game shoot.
Wood to metal always
