Simulated Game bird Shooting 2023

What is simulated game bird shooting?

The Game bird shooting season ends on the 1st  of February; so this is a fantastic way for game bird shooting syndicates, friends, family, and colleagues to get together outside of the game bird shooting season, enabling them to enjoy leisure time together, to practice their driven game bird shooting skills, which as we all know is important if you wish to keep your skill level to a good standard when the game bird season starts again on the 12th of August. When the shooting season ends most game bird shooters do not pick the gun up again until the following game bird season. (Usually, simulated game bird shooting days run from February to August) Simulated game bird shooting days run in the same way as the traditional pheasant or grouse shooting syndicates, with all the same great traditions associated with game bird shooting. The dress code accepted as being casual compared to the usual tweeds. All the trimmings such as good home-cooked food and drink provided. The usual game shooting etiquette of not shooting your neighbouring guns birds will be completely disregarded in the quest for fun, this all adds to the entertainment of the day’s simulated game bird shooting. Another great advantage with simulated game bird shooting is you always exceed your bag limit by four or five times the number of birds on offer, as the simulated game birds always show up on time at each drive “guaranteed.” We have estates within a one-hour drive from the centre of London, and the surrounding counties with great hotels and B&B for those people that wish to make a weekend of it in the beautiful countryside.
