Steve Colmer was a grouse moor headkeeper for twenty years before retiring from full time keeping in 2020. He is widely regarded as one of the best grouse keepers of his generation. 
 
In this fascinating, touching, inspiring episode he joins Chris and George to share his passion for moorland management, some tales from his time on the moors, and his desire to share the wealth of knowledge that he amassed over two decades. If the tale of A1 Jockey doesn't make you laugh and cry, you're probably dead inside. 
 
(oh, and there's some of the usual silliness too).

The Grouse Whisperer Episode

The no.1 Game Shooting Podcast in the UK
One of the best parts of a day out shooting is the chat with your mates in the pub at the end of the day or on the gunbus. The GunsOnPegs Podcast attempts to bottle that rambling conversation. In the company of a different special guest from the world for shooting each episode, we pour ourselves a drink and tackle the big topics - and the small ones - in fieldsports, conservation, land management and more, always with a wry smile or a downright silly atmosphere.
Our guests share their expertise, wisdom (or their lack of each) as well as helping us to resolve listener's shooting dilemmas in Whose Bird is it Anyway, debating the audience's Unpopular Opinions and discussing more listener correspondence.
