The Regulation of Shooting Episode

The Regulation of Shooting Episode

GunsOnPegs Podcast · 9 Apr 2024 · 1 min read

New legislation in Scotland (The Wildlife Management and Muirburn (Scotland) Act) means that estates that wish to shoot grouse will require a licence - what does it all mean for shooting in Scotland and the rest of the UK?

Ross Ewing, Director of Moorland at Scottish Land and Estates joins Chris and George to explain what this all means for grouse shooting in Scotland. Seen by many as a catastrophe, is the new legislation as bad as all that, and are there any positives to be taken from the process, which saw pro-grouse shooting bodies secure several important amendments to the proposals? What can the shooting community in other parts of the UK learn from the Scottish experience?

Also in this episode: George shares his own Unpopular Opinion and gets stitched up by Chris, we resolve a challenging shooting/marital quandary, hear about a Forgotten Drive from the USA and discuss the logistics of shooting clays on an aircraft carrier's flight deck.
