The Field

Oct 01 2019
Magazine

Published by Time Inc. (UK) Ltd The Field is a monthly glossy magazine dedicated to those brave souls who shoot, fish and hunt way beyond the call of duty. Since 1853, its staff has selflessly brought its readers the cream of rural life, be it pheasant shooting, dry-fly fishing or the distinct merits of Cheval Blanc. If you love field sports, errant terriers and very foxy friends at hunt balls, The Field is for you.

THE FIELD

Lowering the barrier • Fieldsports are great fun – so why aren’t they attracting more millennials? Philip Siddell suggests how we can help his generation get involved, boosting our community in the process

Art in the field • Jack Fetherstonhaugh is making a splash in more ways than one. He tells Janet Menzies how he deals with the more diva-like of his subjects

Field Notes

In brief

The Naked, Strewth • A MONTHLY EXPLORATION OF THE BRITISH FONDNESS FOR REMOVING CLOTHES IN A GOOD CAUSE

DIARY DATES: OCTOBER

#The Field • MONTHLY ROUND-UP OF WHAT’S HAPPENING IN OUR WORLD ON SOCIAL MEDIA

Waders need grouse moors • A recently published study by the GWCT into the populations of upland species provides a clear link between the cessation of grouse-moor management and wader declines

New in the field • Our monthly guide to everything covetable in the coverts, tremendous on the Test and bang on in the butt

Letters

Is beauty in the eye of the householder? • Her Majesty may be the longest-reigning monarch but those decades have failed to produce a defined style of development, says Rupert Bates

TAKE 3 – WESTCOUNTRY COTTAGES

Country estate of the month • BELVEDERE, BURGMANNS HILL, LYMPSTONE, EXMOUTH, DEVON

WRECK OF THE MONTH

TAKE 3 – CITY CRASH PADS

Being thankful for small blessings • Artisanal producers and kitchen-based craft industries are enjoying a revival, as Tim Field explains

Waste not, want not • Wartime shortages promoted food efficiency, says Editor Jonathan Young, leaving an indelible impression on many young fieldsports followers

You’d better shape up • As summer ends and the opening meets approach, Eve Jones is tasked with turning an obese and feral ginger nag into a handsome hunter

Bowmont hosts a day for Doddie • Last November, guns faced hard-flying birds at the Duke of Roxburghe’s estate in aid of the My Name’5 Doddie foundation. The burning question was, would they keep their breeks on?

A ringing success in the Golden Triangle • Guns enjoyed great sport in East Sussex, when four shoot owners contributed drives to a 150-bird day to raise money for the local hunt

Precision and tradition in Japan • Miroku’s factory in Kochi prefecture offers a fascinating insight into modern shotgun production

MIROKU’S LONG AND INTERESTING HISTORY

How to keep on top form • What do you do when you hit a bad patch out shooting? Here are some solutions

Bones out of the blue • A few days at the Delphi Club – casting for the fast-running bonefish of the Bahamas – is the perfect antidote to post-shooting-season blues

A vale day with the Kimblewick • A wonderful sense of optimism pervades the Kimblewick, a hunt that has acquired both a new name and predominantly new pack in less than a decade

SIX OF THE KIMBLEWICK’S BEST

Ready for the stag party? • Are you hoping to join the hallowed ranks of FieldMacnabbers? If so, Blaser has the kit to help you complete the 2019 Macnab Challenge

Get knotted • Ties add style, statement and a splash of colour. Here are some of our sporting favourites

Simply the vest • Practical and stylish, a shooting vest is both added protection and the ideal extra layer

When warning decibels start ringing • Firing a shotgun...
