Fieldsports Journal | Volume IX Issue II
Anyone who attended or watched the 2012 London Olympics will need no introduction to this issue’s guest editor: Peter Wilson MBE. That summer, he shot to fame, winning gold in Men’s Double Trap at his first-ever Olympic Games. What the crowds didn’t see, however, was a lifelong dedication to game shooting and conservation, first ignited at the age of 10 as he tagged along on shoots with his father.
In this issue, we discover more about Peter’s love of farm shoots, small bags and hard-won days on the mountains. We report from a wonderfully close-knit shoot day in Wiltshire and enjoy an exclusive interview with his proud father, offering a rare insight into the family behind the gold medal.
Further afield, respected fieldsports journalists take us in pursuit of the world’s best fishing, hunting and shooting: from wild boar in Austria and trout in Slovenia to partridges in Berkshire. We also hear from a young stalker in Scotland who has embarked on a lifelong quest to take all six species of UK deer.
With game recipes, sporting art and much more besides, this is a varied issue that captures the breadth of modern fieldsports.
