Shooting Times and Country
01. Introduction
In 1882, the wildfowler Lew Clement established Shooting Times and Country and it’s gone to press every week since. A British institution, one of the title’s main focuses is news content and analysis by subject matter experts and thought leaders. Aimed at everyone from hobby shooters to professional gamekeepers, Shooting Times and Country is also lauded for its unrivalled storytelling and practical advice on topical subjects like training gundogs, feeding poults and cleaning shotguns.
Shooting Times has been the voice of the fieldsports community for over 140 years. How many of us can recall reading their first issue with a parent or grandparent? The magazine sense of community remains as strong as ever and the title continues to grow and evolve with Britain’s ever-changing rural landscape whilst retaining the traditional values that we all love. As Britain’s only weekly shooting magazine, Shooting Times leads the way in terms of breaking news, seasonal sport and expert opinion.– Ollie Harvey, Editor, Shooting Times & Country
