Deer Stalking and Rough Shooting
Deer Stalking and Rough Shooting are by arrangement.
The red deer stalking on Ben Damph is exceptional. The steep ground, changeable weather and magnificent scenery make for unforgettable days on the hill. Twenty stags are normally taken between 25 Aug & 20 Oct and 20 hinds between 21 Oct & 15 Feb. The highland garron (pony) Kate assists with bringing the stags home to the larder using the pony paths. Currently the roe deer population is being conserved so that numbers increase to utilise the 400 acres of regeneration and new plantings on Loch Damphside.
Cost: Stags £250 per day - hinds £50 per day + stalker's fee
Rough Shooting in season: There are ptarmigan on the high tops above 2000ft and a few grouse. While greylag geese, duck, snipe and woodcock are on the lower ground. A pointer or setter is useful for the grouse and a spaniel or labrador for the other species.
Cost: £40 per gun per day |
