- It's an early start and a late finish. Paul Childerley is managing the deer on three estates and a large formal garden. He manages to stalk and shoot eight ainmals from four of the UK's six deer species: roe, fallow, muntjac and Chinese water deer.

Why shoot deer?
There are more than two million red, roe, fallow, sika, muntjac and Chinese water deer in Britain’s countryside and semi-urban areas, the highest level for 1,000 years. Numbers have doubled since 1999, according to the Deer Initiative, the UK government’s deer agency.
Deer are an attractive and an important part of our wildlife. However, they have no natural predator in the UK so numbers must be sensibly and strategically managed to keep them in balance with their habitat and to prevent damage to crops, trees, woodland flora, gardens and other wildlife.
Deer cause £4.5 million-worth (Forestry Commission Scotland) of damage to plantations and other commercial woodlands in Scotland. Crop damage is estimated at £4.3m a year according to DEFRA, with the greatest damage on cereal crops in east and south-west England.
More than 8,000 hectares (Parliamentary Office for Science and Technology) of woodland with SSI status is currently in ‘unfavourable’ or ‘recovering’ condition due to deer impacts such as browsing and fraying. Deer can also influence the variety of wildlife in woodlands and other habitats by altering structural and plant species diversity. According to the University of East Anglia’s Dr Paul Dolman, that has resulted in a 50% decline in woodland bird numbers where deer are present, impacting particularly on nightingales, blackcaps, chiffchaffs and warblers.
Deer are susceptible to Bovine TB and may be responsible for the transmission of TB to cattle. They are also the likely driver behind the UK’s increasing tick population (Scharlemann et al 2008).
Happily, venison is a delicious meat. It is wild, natural and free range, and - almost fat-free - it is one of the healthiest meats available today. Results from research commissioned by the Game-to-Eat campaign (Leatherhead Food International Research 2006) suggest that there are real health benefits to eating game. Venison is high in protein, low in saturated fatty acids and contains higher levels of iron than any other red meat. - Sport
Brilliant film! Your hard work is much appreciated
Not used to seeing such tiny deer!, white tail look like monsters compared to them. Very interesting.
And Hungarian reds make white tail look like rabbits
best video I've seen for years
Best video in a good while.
I had to replay the shot at 7:04 several times just to watch the trajectory.
one of the best videos on here
What a beautiful scope!
Top man absolutely brilliant video fella nice shooting
The last location, the parc 👍 😍
Always good when Paul is on the case.....
Awesome! Great video!
Nice shooting Paul, looking forward to getting a roe to go with my CWD. Bring on May!
Great video, great rifle, great shooting!
Awesome loving it 👍
Great vid!
Bless his heart. Rough day at the office.
Spot on
That’s a damn good day behind the scope. 👍
"A day in the life of a deer manager" but also its a Zeiss ad.
Class video👌🏼
Great video, how would you compare the V6 to the Swaro Z6i in the field?
Is that actually what bullets look like on camera or is that slowed down?
Marvelous job, all day in nature, shooting, being best at what you do. Would love to trade mine with his, jobwise.
That’s the smallest deer I’ve ever seen
Muntjac deer.
How do they taste
steven Lamar with their mouths
@@daveedwards3531 lol
Sika deer are small too and taste way better than white tail- Maryland Eastern shore USA
best video period
Cracking video 👍
Great work Sir! Great awareness as well.
Bet you had a few words with the elderly gentleman following his afternoon stroll in the garden.
Need more of these there the best on here along with crow how
I’ve seen jackrabbits bigger than those things.
Google dik dik
where's the picatinny rail from please ????
High quality video, but its basically a zeiss advert.
Tough day at the office!
What’s your favourite knife for deer?
What gun and calibre are you using please? Just interested as to what takes down a deer.
What roe sack was Paul using
What backpack is that
Was paul using the 2.5 x15 x56..
That carbonwolf😍
Lol yeah try putting a NM mule deer in a bag
Yup best buck I’ve shot came from the Jicarilla...ridiculous Rocky Mountain genetics
The entire time I was thinking, you couldn't do what he's doing with virtually any deer species the northern of America 😂
what is the name of your tick repellent clothing and what model is it
+Stephen Duncan Hi - it's Shooterking. / Charlie
What a good use of a suppressor. Eventually those in charge here in the states will wisen up.
The people are in charge....
I'm really surprised to see a suppressor being used. I would've thought that would be an impossibility in the UK but what the hell do I know
Robin Paydon it’s mandatory in some European states to hunt with suppressors
@@CHAMBEREDin308 if you have a reason for a gun or a moderator then you can have them
Having suppressors, or 'moderators' as we call them in the UK, are now almost a matter of course for hunting in the UK.
Ce preț are arma cu tot cu amortizor?
Very nice shooting. Congrat..
What is the backpack producer name?
Shooterking
What caliber and company is that rifle
Thanks
Did anyone else see the hole in the air made by the .243 travelling that fast? I have honestly never seen that on camera before. Check out the shots at 5:15
Picture quality isn't as good, but you can see it on a few shots on this video too czcams.com/video/hl4eqlFH3DU/video.html
vapor trails my friend not holes in the air exactly.
@@Falcon-vu5qp Yea you are right, but the vapour is made by the pressure drop as the round speed is so high it forces a low pressure "hole" in the air creating the vapour. So we are both right 😉
@J H oh, never knew that the lens being out of focus would have left a full trail like that. I thought it was a combination of cold weather and a off center camera that showed it. Usually the camera is either from the barrel or 90 degrees to it
@J H sorry mate, I wasn't arguing with you or trying to prove you wrong. Just talking about it!
What caliber was he using? Some fine and ethical shooting.
243
Where do I sign up for a job like this... lucky bugger
Do you just shoot the first one you see?
No - you have seasons for most deer, and for the deer in season you have the kind of animal you want to take in mind, i.e. poor quality 'cull' bucks. / Charlie
What brand/type of jacket is the hunter wearing?
Shooterking
Cheers
Why do the muntjacs have such long teeths ? DO they eat meat ? Awesome video aswell . Keep going mate !!
+fiskeman92 Don't know - fighting? / Charlie

MuscleDoggo92 Revierjäger werden.
how many deer can you shoot ?
Kyle Adair
Uk has six species of deer:
Muntjac
Chinese water deer
Roe
Sika
Red
Fallow
That can be shot at various times of the year 👍
As long as they are in season no limits, but management isn't about shooting large numbers, it's about taking the right animals at the right time to keep a healthy population on your land
haha, let me throw this in my backpack and carry on...try that with a 300lb'r lol
Best job ever! I would do it for free!
5:49 they say dinosaur sont exist anymore, huh ?????
I want to be a hunter
You mis spelt manager...!
The problem with the ticks is almost purely a UK problem
Also in the US.
@@OldJoeF got some aswell in Poland especially in summer and in thick forests/grassy forests
I’m pretty sure every country has ticks. I see plenty on the deer I shoot over here in America and up in Canada it’s so bad that moose rub themselves raw dude to ticks sometimes
I wonder what each of those species tastes like
its what rabbits looks like where Im from
Deer so small you can put them in a back pack lmao
They're so tiny
It's hard for me to wrap my head around killing animals
just because I usually take such pleasure in their existence
but what a beautiful way of life : )
instead of wasting away in an office; really beautiful
i would love that animals could , knew how to use weapons!
Thank god a mature Wisconsin Doe doesn't fit in a backpack....
Here’s an idea. Instead of wasting tax payer money by paying certain people to hunt why not just let the people that want to hunt buy licenses like many country’s do. That being said if the British government is hiring I will gladly move across the pond and use my talents to hunt your deer for money
It’s very rare for the government here to hire people to shoot deer, the closest you would get would be the forestry commission that employ people to shoot deer to protect tree plantations for this you’d need a dsc (all levels desired) and of course an fac, however I’m not sure however how you as a foreigner would go about obtaining a section 1 firearms license.
Those things are dog sized.
I enjoy your videos but why do you not show the entire kill shot? You cut away at the moment the bullet impacts the animal. Please man up and show the entire kill shot.
I’m not against hunting for food, because I know how good it feels to eat something that you have 100% earned and it also saves money. I’m not sure if a deer manager would be the correct title or not, if the deer numbers suddenly started declining, would you help to replenish their numbers? Deer manager, or deer murderer?
Lewis Hampson well considering it is deer management and conservation (which takes place everywhere hunting is permitted) yes less numbers of deer would be shot, shorter seasons less tags/licenses. So yes management and no not deer murdering. Clearly there is a significant abundance of deer in the areas he was in considering in one day he came across dozens upon dozens of deer (that was filmed) and shot a couple in each area that is considered healthy management.
But what is the need to “manage them” they are very beautiful animals, I’d much rather see them running around than as pink mist through a scope. I don’t have a problem with killing one or two, and eating them. But to say they need managing is idiotic. They don’t do any harm. There are too many humans and they cause lots of harm, If I decided to become a “human manager” would it be justified?
@@pmolqrcd3370 They do require managing to prevent conflict with modern human lifestyles. Left completely unchecked they'd be subject to massive boom/dieoff cycles which people find grotesque. They'd be in the roads causing people do swerve into ditches and oncoming cars an generally raising the insurance rates. They also cause damage to property that's both cosmetic and environmentally unsound. They carry disease-laden parasites into close quarters. A new one to me is that he's also managing behavior: he's intentionally shooting deer that are not shy and would attract poachers who, in my experience in a rural area, come at night and are willing to shoot near or towards homes, livestock, or other unknown targets. In high school I found that a bullet had passed completely through my bedroom while I was away one week. It was closed season. I didn't like deer in the yard anymore. These deer won't pass on their witless genes, and he's stemmed a long-term problem.
He isn't managing. He literally shot the first deer he saw
You’ve got to remember this is a video and parts may be edited out.
