Booking & Typical Costs
Whether guided or unguided the session fee covers the time out on the ground. Often there is no additional charge, but depending on what is shot there may be an additional “shot fee”.
Shot fees vary depending on species and management objectives. Most outings focus on female deer, which typically carry low or no additional shot fees.
Full shot fee details are available on our Shot Fees page. Your guide will always confirm applicable fees before any shot is taken.
Watermeadow provides structured cull and management days across carefully managed ground throughout the UK.
These days are designed for competent and experienced deer stalkers assisting with genuine population management under clear estate parameters.
Each rifle is allocated an individual high-seat position per session, with positions rotated between sessions to ensure balanced access and effective coverage of the ground.
All cull days operate under the Watermeadow Standard, with safety, ethical shot selection and professional conduct expected at all times.
Structure of the Day
Cull days are conducted from elevated high seats.
The day begins with a structured safety briefing before deployment to designated positions. Each session provides a minimum of three hours field time.
Full-day bookings include two sessions, with rifles rotated to different seats between sessions.
A guide remains responsible for overall coordination and estate oversight throughout the day.

Cull days operate with a limited number of structured positions depending on estate size and safety considerations.
