The Stalking Directory FREE DSC 1 COURSE Draw in memory of Keith Robinson

Site Staff
Dear all,

The site is proud to offer SIX DSC 1 places to some of its lucky members this year. These are paid for by the generosity of our site supporters whose contributions fund not just some of the running of the site but also initiatives like this one, ensuring more people have a sound knowledge foundation for their own stalking journey. The draw is also held in memory of Keith Robinson, a greatly valued and missed member of our community.


Eligibility

To apply, you must have been a site member for at least 30 days and have made at least 30 constructive posts.
This offer is open to existing members only and is not transferable.


How to Enter the Draw

PM me with the following details:
  • Full name
  • Address
  • E-mail address
  • Mobile number
  • Date of birth
  • FAC number (only required if you intend to use your own rifle)

What You Need to Know
  • The draw is free to enter for eligible members
  • You do not need your own rifle — an estate rifle can usually be provided to BDS members
  • Courses will be delivered by the British Deer Society (BDS) at venues across the UK this year — winners will be able to choose the scheduled training course most convenient to them.
  • The six winners will be drawn at random on the 26th April 2026
  • Winners will have their details passed to BDS, after which all correspondence regarding the course is handled directly between you and their training department
  • Important: If you book a place and do not attend (and are unable to defer in advance with BDS), you will be required to reimburse the site in full for the cost of the course

Initiatives like this one are only possible because of the members who choose to support this site financially. If you value what this community offers and want to help us do more, please think about becoming a supporter today. At £2 per month, it is not a great expense and every contributor makes a difference as well as having the chance to win in our monthly prize draw.


Good luck to all who apply!
 
Keith was one of life's gentlemen. Kind and always ready to help anyone with an issue with their chillers or deer management.

I have fond memories of him stalking with me and the hearty breakfasts after an early morning foray on the deer. Through the great Supporters of the site his memory will live on, and I am very grateful to Charlie for agreeing to carry this forward on the site.
 
Keith was a godsend to be fair, passing on tips and information on here and over the phone to me when my chiller wasn't playing ball.
Sadly I never got the chance to meet him personally, but grateful for his help.

Dear all,

This is a final call for any members who would like to enter into the prize draw for a DSC1 course paid for by the site. We are providing six places in memory of Keith Robinson and the draw will be held this Sunday (26th April). Please make sure you meet the membership criteria above and send the relevant information to me via PM by close of play on Saturday.

As a wonderful added bonus, @Migwados has kindly offered free access to the DSC1 App for the lucky winners. I have spent a couple of weeks playing with it and it's a superb resource for anyone revising for their DSC1 assessment. You can find it at the link above for both Apple and Android users.

Thank you. I’m very grateful for this opportunity.

My thanks to the supporters, those involved in setting this up in memory of Keith, and of course Charlie, for making this happen.

I will endeavour not to fail it, as I did my higher biology many, many moons ago 🫣
