The Oxford gun company
We are very pleased to be associates of the Oxford Gun Company.
They are a well established family run gun shop and shooting grounds, in Oakley, Buckinghamshire. The team of David, Doug, Shirley, Charlotte and all the others are very welcoming and down to earth.
Situated a short drive from the M40, not far from Aylesbury, Bicester and Oxford.
You can pay and play on their various set-ups including the 2020 post-lockdown game challenge or the clay mate system. It's a brilliant way to kill time between your deer stalking outings with us at each end of the day or to practice for our pigeon and game days for example.
There is a wonderfully decorated cafe-restaurant onsite as well, where you can get a fresh bacon sandwich and a hot coffee. Soon to be an independent resturaunt, so ask them about the new venture!
The shooting grounds at the Oxford Gun Company have been laid out along a beautiful brook which trickles through the middle. Whether you hear it or not with your ear defenders on is another matter, however!
The all weather stands on their layouts have been carefully designed to accommodate both the beginner getting off to the best start or to provide a challenge to the more experienced shot.
They can offer caddied rounds of shooting for those without shotgun licences. For those with licences of their own and who want a bit more freedom on can come and have a go on their recently installed Clay Mate system.
Tuition is available, and good tuition at that! Or perhaps this season’s new gun to prepare yourself for any pigeon or game shooting you may want to book with us.
Any Chiltern Sporting clients can benefit from our reduced rates on clothes and ammunition too! What’s not to love?
Why not try some clays to ‘get your eye in’ before sitting out in one of our hides?
If you are thinking of booking days with us, you can vary the outings to fit some sporting clays around your game shooting. Keep the week interesting, get some practice in, get suited and booted and restock on discounted ammo!

Avoiding issues that arise in association with deer via non-lethal methods, are not a long term solutions. Their numbers are ever increasing. Instead of demonizing shooting folk in the UK, we should be promoting them, bringing new members into deer stalking, promoting more local venison, shooting more deer and praising those that keep a balance for all our wildlife on a daily basis. We should be educating the next generations on responsible countryside management, closing the disconnect in today’s society.
Between species who thrive beyond natural numbers (such as foxes, corvids, pigeons, rabbits…) and those who have a hard time adapting in the modern sculpture of our landscape (like ground nesting birds, pollinators, red squirrels, butterflies…), deer are somewhere in the middle for the most part. They tend to thrive in most of our countryside and the estimated deer population of the UK is the highest it has ever been at any point before, as it is in many other countries and continents.
Deer stalking (or deer hunting for any non UK English speakers) is a thrilling experience and in our core we share the very same emotions, goosebumps, respect and gratitude as our earliest ancestors had. The fact of the matter is being part of this cycle and eating what we have hunted ourselves is such a fulfilling sensation. We know exactly where our food comes from. An article in 3 parts

Andrew had come stalking with Chiltern Sporting over a weekend and had learned a lot over a couple of blank sessions. Pleased with the whole experience, they had come again and fortunately for Andrew the tables had turned and we were able to lead him onto a roe buck, which he harvested calmly, in a calculated manner. He kindly left us a few heart warming lines for us to share
Steve is a seasoned hunter and an avid field to fork enthusiast. Last winter season, Steve had come through Chiltern Sporting for a chinese water deer. He had kindly left us a little message to publish, here it is in his own words :
I’ve had the opportunity over the years to shoot with a number of guides for both pigeon shooting/control and also for deer stalking.
Yet I’ve always gone back to Tom and company at Chiltern Sporting for a number of simple reasons - professionalism, knowledge of their quarry, nice guys and the fantastic countryside over which they shoot.
A few months ago, Richard had his first deer stalking experience with one of Chiltern Sporting’s guides, Henry. He happily left review of his experience with us and we are very proud to share it with you. Here is his story told in his own words

Corvid is a scientific group name for the crow family. It is not in this case a typo of Covid 19! It includes: Carrion crows, rooks, magpies, jays, hooded crows, ravens and jackdaws but why do we want to control their numbers? Some we do not. Ravens for example are granted full protection in th UK and are not very common in most areas, and in places without nearby woodlands, jays are usually not present and thus not an issue.
