Fieldsports Britain – Pigeon shooting on the quiet

Dan Thor is jamming – no not his guitar but his gun. He’s out shooting pigeons with a Hushpower .410, and coping with a sticky action. Whatever government the UK gets on 4 July 2024, a trophy import ban is on the cards – but it won’t be as easy as Labour and the Tories think. We take a look at the political realities. Plus, Terry Doe has taught kids how to shoot airguns. Can he teach an old dog new tricks? James Marchington attends the Airgun Academy. We have James Head from Crackshot on essential airgun hunting kit, David is on the Fieldsports News stump and James brings you the latest YouTube hunting films in this week’s Hunting YouTube. It’s all in this week’s #FieldsportsBritain
