Quotes from the Shoot

The drives are so consistent

I enjoyed the banter between guns, keepers and beaters

There was never any question of overage, it was not even mentioned!

I liked the idea of paying a fixed price for the day – no pressure and so much more relaxing

Grouse Shooting on Danby Moors, near Whitby

The 11,000 acre moors at Danby in the North York Moors represents some of the finest driven grouse shooting in the UK. The moors can be shot over two days and the bags for the day vary from 100 brace early in the season to 60/80 brace later in October / November.

The Danby Moors are situated on the northern boundaries of the North York moors with the Esk Valley lying east / west through the middle of the moors. The North York Moors is one of the largest areas of uninterrupted heather moorland in Europe and the landscapes are stunning and provide an impressive backdrop to a day’s shooting.
