Free Deer Culling and Deer Management Service

At County Deer Management we recognise that whilst deer are often an admired and fondly regarded animal they do require management. We offer a FREE Deer Management Service using properly qualified deer managers to help you achieve this.

Our service is FREE this is because our costs are covered purely from the sale of the resulting Venison. As such we ask only that any deer shot remain the property of the stalker.

How We Work

Upon your invitation we will visit your property and carry out the following:

• A survey of your land, providing you with an assessment of the likely species of deer and their approximate numbers.
• We will discuss with you and offer advice on appropriate forms of deer deterrents. Including the use of Deer fencing, Tree guards and electric fencing.
• If required we will then carry out a risk assessment in order to consider carefully the viability of a deer cull.
• If a cull is thought to be the best solution to your deer problems we will discuss a suitable cull plan with you.
• Why not give us a try? For more details please CONTACT US.

Sika Deer Stalking

At County Deer Stalking we are able to offer what we believe to be the finest sika deer stalking in the UK.

We have grounds in Dorset and in Kent where we are able to offer first-class stalking over hundreds of acres of stunning scenery. 

Sika Deer Stalking can be highly challenging as these deer are a secretive and whilly quarry. The best time of year to be hunting is during the rut in September to October, and during the early days of the season for hinds in November. 

At County Deer Stalking we are delighted to be able to offer superb Sika Deer Stalking in Dorset and Kent for both cull animals and world class Sika stag trophies. Please contact us for details. 0203 981 0159 This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.

As well as in Dorset and Kent, many who choose to hunt Sika, will visit Scotland where there is a large population of Sika, along with an increasing number of Sika/Red Hybrids. Other large herds can be found in the New Forest and East Anglia.

Sika Deer (Cervus Nippon) are one of the larger UK Deer Species having originally been introduced to the UK in the 19th Century from Japan.

Typically existing in single sex groups but mixing more readily during the Rut in September, Sika deer are a highly vocal deer with a large range of unusual calls.
