About partridge shooting in wiltshire

Driven partridge shooting over stubble fields in September offers some of the most fantastic sport available. Although you'll rarely find days of English partridge shooting, the french partridge has provided a very reliable alternative. Many shoots across the UK will shoot partridge throughout the season and many bags after October will consist of both pheasant and partridge.

Traditional Estate Steeped in History surrounding the local area of Malmesbury, in the Cotswolds, the current home of the 22nd Earl of Suffolk, 15th Earl of Berkshire. Using the natural landscape and extensive woodland, some of the Cotswolds sporting pheasants and partridges are available, across 12 drives. Novice and experienced guns, together with their dogs are all welcome. We have days available for both full teams and individual pegs. Partridges are shown from well known drives including Ashers, Old Skillham and Conigre . These drives will succeed thanks to the tall trees, encouraging the birds to gain height and slide when in full flight over the valleys. Pheasant drives showing challenging birds from signatory drives benefit from prevailing winds off banks over the Little Avon River and valley. We are excited to have this ground from season 2023/24 with a different twist on the shoot by showing Partridges, again over tall trees on top of some steep sided valleys, shooting on over 4500 acres of Grass land, Park Land and Arable farmland.

The owner and shoot host is Ed Waddington. He will be with the guns on the day driving the team from drive to drive. Ed's days are well-known for superb presentation of driven red legs, greys & pheasant. Guns meet in a charming converted barn just down the road from the main farm house. Pegs are drawn from the bottom of slow-gin glasses, and the guns travel around the shoot on the estate’s converted army lorry (It’s smarter than we make it sound!).

By lunch every peg will have had plenty of testing shooting, and if teams are not shooting through the last drive is always one to remember. Teffont is a firm favourite - cracking shooting combined with a warm, enthusiastic welcome.
