The intermediate Deer Course is designed as a step between DSC Levels One and Two and the aim is to advance and prepare stalkers wishing to undertake the DSC level two, and any novice stalker wishing to further their practical experience.

The aim is to provide each candidate with numerous opportunities to practice and demonstrate the following
· Stalking the deer or shooting from a high seat.
· Taking the shot and reaction to shot.
· Approaching the deer/follow up.
· Extracting and transporting the carcase.
· Gralloching and inspection of the carcase.

Several deer have to be culled over the two days to enable the course to be run. This is the reason that we have so few venues, because there are few places where you can guarantee good numbers of accessible cull animals.

The two day course costs £260; for further details and a booking form please follow the link

Their are still a few vancancies left remaining!

Is their anyone on the forum who has been on the course? It would be good to get their feedback
 
If the candidates are actually culling deer are they eligible to have the stalks/animals as part of the tally for their DSC2 Assessment?
 
The course was never set up to accomodate witnessing. It is for those who have their Level 1 and need some practical guidance on how to achieve their Level 2 stalks. It is also very useful for those who have little practical experience of culling/stalking deer and want to increase these skills with knowledgeble trainers.
