Chris Abbott

I was born into a hunting, shooting, fishing family and at the age of three using a Geco 9mm garden gun I shot my first Teal. That little gun is still in my cabinet and my son, now aged three, is currently breaking clays with it.

My involvement in the shooting field has covered just about all aspects of the sport over the years. As a teenager I trapped and helped out at Thimbleby Clay Ground, trained in gamekeeping at Northumberland, shot in numerous FITASC competitions throughout Europe, ran the family game syndicate and of course deer stalking and management. I was also the third generation to head the Hartlepool Wildfowlers and of course deer stalking and management.

My father was an avid deer stalker, often accompanying him I shot my first Roe aged 11 which got me hooked on stalking. At fifteen I had NSCC then my DMQ 1 & 2 when they were first launched.

Deer stalking and Management is my passion and I am proud to now be a professional stalker on numerous parcels of land throughout the country.

I use various equipment depending on what type of shooting I am doing. My kit list is below and in addition to this I also bought the Ruger American, Leupold VX-3i scope, Breda Grizzly and I have a Merkel Speedster (Black & Orange) on order. If I trust and believe in a product then I will buy it!

Kayleigh Gray

I didn’t grow up shooting, at one point I used to be a vegetarian. I first got into it when a coach asked me if I’d like to give clay pigeon shooting a go. After my first lesson I was hooked.

A year later I bought my first shotgun (a trusty, old Beretta 682), shot clays most weekends and had further coaching. I then moved onto shooting rabbits with a .22 and 17HMR and have had numerous days out on the pigeons, and few days on peg game shooting.

In the summer of 2017, I shot my first roebuck and have since been out stalking most weekends. Seeing British wildlife in its natural habitat and taking part in country sports has inspired my artwork.

I am passionate about deer management and providing my own source of meat; in the past 2 years I’ve accounted for around 30 roe and 1 fallow and in recent months have started to gain some independence. I have completed my DSC Level 1 and 2 on Doe’s. In the next couple of year’s I’d like to shoot all 6 native deer species and am hoping to tick muntjac off later this year.

Scott Mackenzie

I was brought up on a council estate within a large town but always longed for outdoors amongst the hills and woodlands. Little did I know where my journey would take me, from that first day as a YTS Gamekeeper at the tender age of 15 working on a commercial pheasant and partridge shoot to now as Head Gamekeeper Stalker on a Highland estate. My chosen career has given me so many experiences and allowed me to enrich the experience of the outdoors to others.

Adam Farwell

Adam’s journey into the world of shooting began at just 6 years old, with an underpowered air rifle and targets set at 10 yards. This early exposure ignited a passion that has grown and evolved over the years. From progressing to shotgun shooting at 10, acquiring his Firearms Certificate at 18 for fox shooting, to discovering the thrill of long-range target shooting and competitive matches, Adam’s life has been a continual journey of growth and achievement in shooting disciplines.

Over the past few years, Adam has been a prominent figure in both centrefire and rimfire shooting circuits. He competes with a Leupold Mark 5HD which has supported him to secure a spot on the British Open Team for the 2024 Centre Fire World Cup in Colorado, US. Additionally, Adam is a regular competitor on the PRS .22 circuit, where he notably placed 7th in the factory division and 26th overall at the world championships.

Chris Dalton

I come from a farming background in rural South Yorkshire and my love of the countryside and rural pursuits has remained with me to this day.

I was introduced to shooting from an early age and quickly became hooked on the sport My grandfather was a great horticulturalist, another of my interests and I am passionate about sustainability and self- sufficiency, examples of this are that we grow all of own vegetables, keep free range hens and bees.

I was fortunate to be able to continue sporting shooting as I moved around the world as a serving RAF officer. Stalking came later to me – around 30 years ago and with Anne we formed South Ayrshire Stalking in 2006. Our aim has always been to provide a full range of stalking activities; with the major emphasis on promoting ethical deer management principals and to promote the education and training aspects available to all via the Deer Management Qualifications. I keep Bees, have been a DMQ assessor with the British Deer Society and am one of the senior measures with the BDS BASC/ST trophy team.

I am a frequent presenter of The Shooting Show and write a regular column for Shooting Times. I feel honoured to have been awarded the title, ‘UK Professional Stalker of the Year’, for the last 5 years running, made all the more special as it is a public vote. I strongly advocate that we should not shy away from explaining and promoting what we do as stalkers or shooters, this is a conversation we must have as often as we can, we are the true guardians of the countryside along with its many traditions, and we should be rightly proud of that.

Deer Bob

I got into shooting through my father and then spent time stalking with a great friend of mine John Brown, who was a founding member of the British Deer Society. We spent a lot of time stalking in North Yorkshire and the South Lakes both for Roe and Red deer and to this day Roe are my favourite deer to hunt.
