First in the series of Handbooks from BASC. A succinct and practical guide to the sport. Illustrated with helpful photos and diagrams.

Wildfowling is perhaps the purest form of hunting practiced in the UK. The pursuit of truly wild quarry in remote and beautiful places has a magical attraction, but the mystique that surrounds it can also discourage the newcomer. Here, BASC provides a straightforward, practical guide to this challenging sport.

Acknowledged experts explain:

how to find shooting
the choice of gun
the law
necessary equipment
where, when and how to shoot
how to ensure your safety on the marsh and foreshore.

Wherever you live in the UK, there is almost certainly a BASC affiliated club within reach, making wildfowling one of the most accessible and affordable kinds of shooting. This book equips aspiring wildfowlers to take their first steps towards enjoying this unique sport.

The British Association for Shooting and Conservation is the UK's largest shooting organisation, supported by over 148,000 members. BASC represents and safeguards the interests of all who enjoy shooting sports.
