Hi

 

I am doing my dsc1 in March I've read several stalking books and I've just downloaded the question sheet for the dsc1 does anyone have an answer sheet for the question so I can check that I am getting them right save me looking up the books or has anyone got a cd called deer quest I've done a bit of searching for the cd but cant find it.

 

Thanks

I think the British Deer Society sell the training manual & deer quest disc, i would advise buying them both has every thing you need to know for the DSC Level 1 course is in them, and the manual is a good reference book even after you've passed the course.

The Deerquest CD, can be bought from the BDS, BASC & a few other outlets - just do a search.

 

BUT, be warned, it hasnt been updated for a long time, and still has the embedded large game & food hygiene questions - they are in seperate papers now.

 

The only stalking book to use is the BDS one, where the questions have been taken from.

 

My advice would be to work through the questions, and come back on here with any you cant answer - I can probably help, having done the test in Dec 09. All the answers are in the BDS stalking book. You may also find the Deer Comm. Best practice website useful - especially for the food hygiene & disease questions.

 

Lastly, the biggest fail rate is on identification of the 6 species - sounds easy, but it sure aint with the pictures they use, so don't underestimate that bit !

You've got loads of time mate - whoever is arranging the course will go through it all anyway. Read it cover to cover and make your own answer sheet - they are all in the pack. The ID can be tricky at first but don't panic and remember that all the pics have at least one signature feature
