Autumn Shoots in the UK: What to Expect and How to Prepare

Cast you minds ahead to just a few months’ time, when the leaves turn and the countryside

begins to show its autumn colours. This is when the anticipation for the shooting season really starts to build. At Carter Outdoor Pursuits, we believe that preparation is key to making the most of your shooting experience in the UK.

Autumn marks the start of the most exciting part of the shooting calendar. Our trusted

shooting estates in the UK offer spectacular scenery, challenging drives, and top-quality

birds. But turning up ready for the day means more than just bringing your gun. From

ensuring your clothing is suited for unpredictable weather to checking your equipment is in

full working order, preparation can make all the difference.

It’s also the perfect time to refresh your shooting etiquette, review safety practices, and perhaps even schedule a pre-season clay day to get your eye in. Whether you’re new to the field or a seasoned Gun, our team can advise you on what to expect from the day, what to bring, and how to make the most of your time in the field.

Led by Nick Carter, our shoots are known for their attention to detail, warm hospitality, and

commitment to delivering some of the finest shooting UK has to offer. From the moment you arrive to the final drive of the day, we ensure an experience that’s professional,

enjoyable, and memorable.
