THE KINGS WALK SHOOT,
West Dean

In his book "The Great Shoots" author Brian P Martin singled out THE KINGS WALK SHOOT at West Dean not far from MIDHURST in West Sussex as one of particular importance in South East England. Among the more famous guests were the Czar of Russia, King Alfonso of Spain and George V when he was Prince of Wales. But the most famous guest was King Edward VII for whom the shoot and his favourite drive, The Kings Stand, was named. The Modern day King's Stand and other drives on The King's Walk Shoot present similarly challenging birds now as Edward would have met in his day.

The 2000 acre estate has this year been stocked with a total of 32,000 birds made up of 24,000 pheasants and 8,000 partridges and is under the day to day management of Mick Mann, the shoot owner, who is a keeper of over 30 years experience. While 500 bird days are available and corporate hospitality is a speciality, excellent shooting and hospitality is available to both groups and single guns seeking 200 or more bird days. The season starts in September with partridge only days and then offers mixed pheasant and partridge from early October.

    We have a Saturday and Monday syndicate. Full guns, half guns and individual guns are all welcome on the above days. Starting with partridge only days in September, mixed partridges and pheasant in October, and pheasant days from November onwards. We also have whole days available - often on the day of your choice - for both corporate teams and roving syndicates, as well as for the host who wants to fill a day with his friends. All days are based on bags of from 150 to 500 birds. Drives are taken in such a way that up to 10 guns can be stood, but we also work on lower numbers such as 6 guns if teams are made up of very experienced shots.

    TRANSPORT AND SAFETY
    Transport by 4WD vehicles can be arranged with a minimum of 10 days notice. Loaders can be arranged for the bigger days if required. Also, for novice guns on corporate days, we can supply experienced coaches to help with instruction and safety.

    CLAY SHOOTING
    Total novices are welcome. We can supply guns, cartridges and tuition. We hope by the end of the day we will get all you beginners to hit a clay or two. We can also offer simulated game bird shooting with clays throughout the summer months run on a similar basis to a formal driven bird day. Also, for clients booking corporate driven days, we can offer clay shooting with instructors on the previous afternoon if required. Accommodation can be arranged at local hotels.
