In Episode 11 of our Suit to Shoot Series, Kirby Allison begins his first proper day on Craigsanquhar Estate. First up, his incredible $60,000 Purdey shotguns are being delivered and assembled onsite, before Kirby has the opportunity to meet renowned gamekeeper George Elliott. George manages the shooting on both Craigsanquhar and Birkhill castle estates, and is widely regarded as one of the best gamekeepers in Scotland.

George invites Kirby to come out for some Clay pigeon shooting to get some practice in with his new side-by-side shotguns, before the real driven shoot day comes tomorrow.

Then finally, George takes Kirby out on a tour of the land, to get a real sense of the incredible work of a Scottish gamekeeper.
