One thing which doesn't ring quite true is the emphasis the article places on inherited wealth as the primary means of access to game shooting.Whilst its no doubt true that titled folk may shoot regularly,and in some pretty spectacular places too,there are many of us "ordinary" chaps get out too. Paid days are available all over the country for driven pheasant together with a few for grouse. Providing you choose where, in accordance with your wallet, the shooting is there to be had. If you can shoot at short notice the invitations will come flooding in to make up the numbers .Personally I prefer pigeon shooting which is free and I think much more challenging. Flight line pigeons in a stiff breeze gives some of the finest shooting to be had in the UK and many who shoot pheasant and grouse will agree.
