Come stand together with us!
For our community. For our deer.

A partnership committed to our community and our deer
The BDS has always had our backs, showing the wider public what we stand for as a community – dedication, skill, and a serious commitment to deer welfare and best practices. They’re a vital part of making sure that, as an industry, we lead with knowledge and high standards.
We’re really excited to be teaming up with them to make The Stalking Show a weekend to remember. Thanks to their members, including dedicated volunteers from the BDS Midlands, Wales, and The Marches branch, we’ve got some great activities lined up. You’ll be able to take on some skill and knowledge challenges that’ll put you to the test as a stalker, plus there’ll be two expert panels where we’ll dive into some of the hottest, most debated topics in the field. Let’s just say it might get lively!
Alongside the BDS and Hunter Gatherer Cooking, we’re inviting everyone at the show to come together for our deer and our community. If we can work better together on a bigger scale, we’ll put the UK on the map as a leader in responsible and sustainable deer management.
