It’s all about difficult deer and easy pheasants this week. Helen Tinner is in the Scottish borders after a sika stag. With guide Nathan Whitehead, they put in the hours to get close to an animal in forestry. Dave ‘the Dog’ Templar steps up to describe gundog training for a field trial, and how he gets a spaniel pitch perfect for flushing and retrieving. And Deborah Hadfield investigates the RSPB, which has stepped up its hate speech against gamekeepers. We are giving away Hoddy’s dog food priced at £140, David is on the news stump, and James Marchington has the best hunting videos on YouTube in Hunting YouTube. It’s all in this week’s #FieldsportsBritain
