Inglorious
£16.99Inglorious
Driven grouse shooting, where flocks of red grouse are chased by lines of beaters so that they fly over lines of ‘guns’ that shoot the fast-flying birds, is a peculiarly British fieldsport. It is also peculiarly British in that it is deeply rooted in the British class system.
