How Shooting is Innovating for the Next Generation - Technology and Youth Engagement

Game shooting in the UK is steeped in tradition, but it’s also embracing innovation to ensure

the sport thrives for generations to come. At Carter Outdoor Pursuits, we’ve seen first-hand

how shooting estates in the UK are blending heritage with new technology and youth

engagement to secure a bright future for the countryside.

From the introduction of biodegradable cartridges like the Eley Hawk Zenith Pro Eco Wad,

to advanced booking systems and precision clay training, modern shooters are combining

skill with sustainability and convenience. These innovations help to protect the environment

while enhancing the overall experience for those who love the sport.

Youth engagement is equally vital. Across the UK, more estates and clubs are welcoming

young people into the world of shooting through training programmes, safety courses, and

supervised field days. These initiatives ensure new shooters understand both the

responsibility and the reward that come with taking part in this great British pastime.

At Carter Outdoor Pursuits, we’re proud to support the next generation of enthusiasts by

offering shooting experiences that combine expert guidance, ethical practice, and

outstanding hospitality. Whether it’s your first day in the field or your hundredth, our goal is

to help you appreciate the craft and camaraderie that make shooting in the UK so special.
