"The Dromia Rule"
Deer Stalking… reliable word of mouth recommendation from someone you know has undertaken such stalking being offered by a specific syndicate is best. Like other walks of life, stalking has its scammers. E.G., make sure there is deer, of the species sought, on the land being made available; that appropriate insurance is in place; that there is recourse for recompense if it all goes wrong. In addition, obtain and understand terms and conditions; consider the implications of allowing a syndicate leader to be a FAC mentor; make sure ‘coaches’ are suitably qualified; consider the quality of deer management, the construction & execution of a shooting plan and safety; determine if the land is over-shot.
If in doubt, contact BASC or similar.

Do some searching around for local estates that host the DSC course, they often offer a butchery course too. Also, have a look on the BASC site, or give them a ring if you're a member

David Stretton at Donnington does courses.
Purveyor of fine cast boolits.
All round good guy and VERY grumpy old man.

If you want to do a course, then speak to Andrew Astill - I'll send you his details later, good hands on course and you will learn a lot.

Re: looking for help after doing my DSC1
I did Dave Stretton's course some years ago and still use the techniques I learned at Donnington, (sufficient for my level 2 without a problem). Where are you in Essex?
