Mr Stephen Thomas
Stephen opened his first shoot some 30+ years ago, but he has been involved with shooting all his life, and helped his father run a small shoot in Dorset where he lives from the age of 15. Away from shooting he like to plays Golf (badly), loves the Opera and has a keen interest in local history. Known for his fine wines and humour, some people have even been known to laugh at some of his jokes.

Mr Nigel Brown
Born and raised as a countryman, Nigel has worked along side Stephen Thomas as his right hand man for many years. Whilst Nigel still attends and supports on many of the shoots, you can now see Nigel hosting shoot days of his own.
His countryside knowledge is vast and he is an avid committee member of the Countryside Alliance and the NGO.

Sir Edward Goschen
Ned as he is affectionately called, really needs no introduction. He was so very successful at running the famous Haddeo Shoot, it’s very fortunate for us that he now lives a lot closer to Prescombe and is helping Stephen running shoots. Unfortunately other commitments means he’ll not be on all shoot days, but if clients who know him would like him to run the day we can look to arrange this.

Mr Oliver Thomas
A graduate of Sparsholt College Olly as he likes to be called is Stephens eldest son. With a vast knowledge of shooting world he even once helped to create a driven shoot in New Zealand (a country he’s very passionate about) a keen shot himself. He can now be found hosting the occasional day, away from shooting he’s a fanatical rugby supporter and has developed a love of wine, one of many traits he has picked up from his father.

Mrs Jules Crook
CIMA level 3 and AAT trained in Finance – Jules worked for the company some years ago, and within the last year re-joined as she missed the excitement of keeping up with Thomas Senior. Jules is a wonderfully terrible shot, a lover of all things food related and she can usually be heard from miles either singing or chasing people for money or paperwork!
