The McDougal sporting challenge

Shoots across the country are diversifying, playing to their strengths and offering more than just well presented birds. At the Ashbourne estate in Sussex the McDougal Challenge is to shoot a cock pheasant in the morning then, after a hearty lunch, tie a fly using a tail feather and then catch a trout in the gin clear waters of the lakes. We join a group of guns/rods hoping to join the exclusive club of McDougalers.
