Carham

The Carham shoot provides a fun day out in rolling countryside, involving about 150 acres of woods set in mixed farmland running over four ridges. We always let to whole parties, mostly of about 8 guns, but 6 to 10 is fine. From a skeleton of larger woods, the shoot has grown through a network of smaller coverts and the odd game strip to offer three full day’s shooting. Carham provides varied and interesting shooting, a lot of fun and an excellent day out. The open character of the countryside gives the wind every opportunity to play a part – which can really add to the excitement.

  The shoot is based on pheasants, all home-reared or wild, with occasional guest appearances from wild partridges – there are plenty of them, but normally they manage to avoid being shot! Days are based on target bags of 150 up to 400, but mostly around 200 birds. Although most parties consist of 8 guns, anything from 6 to 10 can be accommodated happily for single days or back-to-back, as required. We provide a proper lunch in our farmhouse - and are happy to include non-shootists. We always let days as a whole to one party.
