Game Shooting Census 2025: Why It’s Important and How to Take Part

Since 2013, the Game Shooting Census has provided the clearest snapshot of the shooting community. Each year, thousands take part - sharing thoughts, habits, and insights that help shape the future of our sport.

The Game Shooting Census 2025 is now open. Since 2013, it’s been the largest and most influential survey in the shooting world. If you go shooting, this is your chance to have your say.

There’s also the Shoot Owner Census - specifically for those who run or help manage shoots. If you take part in both (and you’re eligible), you’ll get two entries into this year’s prize draw.

The Census Belongs to You

Whether you shoot a handful of days or run your own shoot, your voice matters. The Census is your chance to be counted - to share what’s really happening on the ground.

Why Now?

Shooting is evolving. Opinions are shifting. The landscape is changing. By taking part, you’re helping to build the clearest, most up-to-date picture of the community - so we can all better understand where we stand.

Every voice helps shape the future of shooting. Your answers matter.

Take Part and Win

By completing the Game Shooting Census or the Shoot Owner Census, you’ll also be entered into this year’s prize draw to win two pegs on a 150-bird day at the outstanding Stoke Edith shoot in Herefordshire, home to the legendary Punch Bowl.

Best of luck!
