Filming this one was a real challenge - not just the fact that we were going round on foot in the pitch dark, but busting through a herd of cattle in the dark is a little unnerving! My piece starts at 10 min 44 secs into the show.
It was an exciting night's shooting though, and interesting to see how different laws mean that Irish foxshooters go about things slightly differently to how we do it in England.

Video: culling sika in Ireland
Here's the follow-up to my earlier video on stalking sika in Ireland with Jason Doyle. In this episode, Jason is out on a lowland estate where the deer are wreaking havoc in the pheasant coverts. The keeper wants them culled - but conditions are far from ideal. Will Jason get his deer? The sika item begins at 13:27.

Sika stalking in Ireland on The Shooting Show
I had a fabulous time filming the sika stalking with Pete and Jason for this week's episode of The Shooting Show. What a treat to be out on the hills as the sun rose, listening to the deer making that strange whistle-roar. Filming something like this is a real challenge, not least crawling in with the stalker and rifle, filming it, and keeping the camera out of the bog all at the same time! Still, it'd be no fun if it was easy, would it?
