As the UK shooting season draws closer, it’s time to start preparing your shooting accessories and equipment. You probably know what you are looking for. If shopping for a bag, know what you need to fit inside. If shopping for cleaning products, know what chemicals can ruin the quality of your shooting equipment. Opting for quality means nothing will hold you back and looking for natural colours will help keep you camouflaged.
See below our must have shooting accessories for the new season in 2020:
A quality cartridge bag can help to keep you organised and looking the part. Stick to tradition by shopping for cartridge bags in classic deep earthy colour palettes. Check for quality and look out for speed loading hinged openings, comfortable shoulder straps, quality fine leather and brass buckles.
Some styles may also come with the option to personalise your bag or will have matching gun slips available to purchase.
A hard-backed game book with a clear and simple layout is as important to the seasoned hunter and the enthusiastic beginner. Record memories of those special days, noting the names of your fellow guns, game shot, and remarks on the event.
Stalking books are also available
Just like any other sport, looking the part can help greatly with your confidence and how you shoot. Discreetly coloured shooting socks certainly does not mean boring! Decorative tops and contrasting garters personalise your daytime attire and ensure you to feel comfortable throughout the day.
To maintain the condition of your guns, accessories and equipment, it’s important to set aside time to take care of them. Shop for quality cleaning products and tools, including gun oil, cleaning brushes and cleaning agents. If unsure, ask at the checkout how to use your cleaning kit properly to prevent damage to your shooting accessories.
When shopping for decoys, make practice more interesting with realistic looking decoys which can be fixed in various positions so you can train at different angles. If you are searching for decoys to use in the water, for example ducks, check that their design has a low centre of gravity. This will stabilise them while in the water, so they don’t start rolling.
