Mr. Ben Eglen
With a few more birds on the ground early/mid season I can see that has some very good high bird shooting available, the hospitality is the best I've ever had on a shoot day and the syndicate our very welcoming and friendly. The host is exceptional with his hospitality. Highly recommended
