New: Young Shots blog

To mark the start of the new season ShootingUK is launching a new series for young Shots to share their shooting experiences and show-off their writing skills. If you’re 18 or under, enjoy writing and fancy having your work published online alongside the cream of the crop of Shooting Times, Shooting Gazette and Sporting Gun, then get in touch.

We’re looking for blogs of between 500 and 800 words. The subject should relate to shooting in some way, but is pretty much up to you: from your first time in a pigeon hide, in the beating line, picking up or on a peg, through tales of dog-training, clay-busting and adventures with airguns to shoot work and conservation.

If you’d like to get your blog published on this site, email shootinguk@timeinc.com with an idea of what you want to write about.

All writers must be aged 18 or under and able to supply their own photos to go with their blog.
