Deer Stalking Certificate - DSC1

These BASC courses are designed for the sportsman or woman who has recently taken up stalking and is seeking further advice and guidance.   The courses will provide an insight into and a wider understanding of deer stalking techniques and deer management.  The successful delegate will be awarded the Deer Management Qualifications Deer Stalking Certificate One and Large Game element of Wild Game Meat Hygiene requirements to meet the Food Hygiene regulations 2004.

If you wish to reserve a place, please complete the application form and the BASC Rifle Club Form below and return them to Shooting Standards Dept, BASC, Marford Mill, Rossett, Wrexham, LL12 0HL with the full course fee (payable to BASC).  Course bookings cannot be taken over the phone.
