Game Shooting Handbook, The by Mike Barnes
Probably the most traditional of all sports, game shooting has evolved to suit the times. It has an enduring popularity among those who remember the old ways and also appeals to those who have shaped a fresh approach to the sport, in keeping with modern methods of farming and land management. Topics include: - Advice on the choice of gun cartridge - The fundamental techniques of shooting - Survey of the different species of game from pheasant and partridge to pigeon to plover - Safety in the field - Tips on clothing and shooting accessories
'The attraction [of this volume] is that it makes you want to be out there doing it rather than reading about itAnd that, when all said and done, has got to be the best measure of a book.' Sporting Gun
