Borders region

[Claude greenass]

Hi guys , I’m wondering if anybody can help me?I have a couple of different queries.
I was wondering if anybodybody can advise me on the average/ general price range for sika stalking in and around the Scottish Borders .
Secondly I would like to ask if it is something that is even possible , is there anybody around the area offering a chance at some feral goats ( unusual request I know ) .
I am also looking to try and get back in touch with an acquaintance in the area whom I have lost touch with , very well known stalker in the area of whom a few on here will probably know . I don’t know the rules on putting up the mans name on here so I will hold off until I can find out if he’s still in the game . JG would be his initials .( please excuse the vagueness off the last query but I don’t know if putting up names would violate any rules or whether the fella would actually appreciate me stating his name) .
Many thanks

Colin (solway stalker on FB) has areas for Feral goats in and around Galloway so not a million miles away from the Borders, some lovely ground and some challenging walking/climbing/hiking. I'm sure there will be some in the Deer Stalking Opportunities forum that can point you in the right direction for Sika stalking.

Goats concentrated either West or South right to the Border, Sika concentrated more eastward into the Tweed area.

Look up Liddesdale Wildlife Management, should be able to offer both but probably not in the same area.

^^ Fancy having a go at them, are goats as smelly as a big stinking stag? Few farming friends have some and they're similar to sheep.

With Struan Brodie Stalking.

He doesn’t do many days, and I think is fully booked but you can only ask
