The derelict land lay between two villages near Cambridge. Over the next thirty-five years, with the help of friends and volunteers, he turned this wilderness, into one of the most celebrated small sporting estates and conservation areas in Britain. Will Garfit believes passionately that sport and conservation have always been inseparable and it is this concept that has so brilliantly been brought to fruition at Hauxton. This completely revised and updated edition of Will's Shoot, first published in 1992, is indispensable reading for anyone managing a shoot or fishery however small but it will provide inspiration and practical ideas for a far wider readership who will be carried along by the enthusiasm of the author and the sheer adventure of an astonishing project.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49542171001105,"sku":"GOR003543431","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ LIKE_NEW \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":51452374122769,"sku":"GOR010268204","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":53387557929233,"sku":"GOR006498994","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1904057616.jpg?v=1751379668"},{"product_id":"will-s-shooting-ways-book-will-garfit-9781846890369","title":"Will's Shooting Ways","description":"Fifty stories written and illustrated by the well-known country sports writer and artist.

His first pigeon was killed with a catapult as a buy and he then progressed to stalking pigeons with an air rifle and .410, then to decoying using a 12 bore. His youthful enthusiasm led him to meet the legendary father of pigeon shooting, Archie Coats, who took Will under his proverbial wing and become not only a close friend but like a sporting father.   For fifty years Will has been developing his art as a pigeon shooter and this book shares the personal experience, thoughts and secrets that enable him to shoot consistently good bags.
