gsmith 0 Posted April 17, 2009 Report Share Posted April 17, 2009 gents going on a stalk soon and was just wandering what would be an acceptable tip dont want to seem stingy Difficult your paying to stalk your paying for the beast, your paying to shoot a stag /buck so everthing else is a bonus, £20 would do.

v-max 2 Posted April 17, 2009 Report Share Posted April 17, 2009 Hi i would think you will have to pay for the beast to take home & its about £2 a kilo & keep the liver & kidneys but you need to skin them. If you like liver etc IMHO roe is the finest you will ever taste. As for tip £20 is the norm & good but if you have loved the day/stalker & the crack with him etc £20-£50 its your call. If you get a stonking gold medal then you could pass out with trophy fee ie £600-£1200 then a big tip. I know a lad that got a £1000 as a tip as it was the guests biggest buck & a buck of a life time. If you wernt so far you could have come up here with me for an outing at cull stuff.

3bl 0 Posted April 17, 2009 Report Share Posted April 17, 2009 The last time I paid for accompanied stalking was around five years ago I shot two fallow and gave the stalker a fifty pound tip,he was a decent guy,and like everyone else he has to earn a living,however tip your stalker what you can afford most people would start at twenty,and whatever you tip I am sure the stalker will be grateful,be lucky.
