Driven Pheasant Line Shoots

The benefit of a Driven Pheasant Line Shoot is that shooters do not need a minimum group size to enjoy these unique hunting opportunities. Simply join an Open Line Shoot solo or bring a small group to enjoy a European-Style Driven Pheasant Shoot with other wing shooting enthusiasts.

Reservations for Open Line Shoots are required. Please confirm each Open Line Shoot date.

ADDITIONAL BIRDS CAN BE PURCHASED for the shoot. Just let us know the quantity you would like to have an opportunity to shoot.

Hunters are positioned at different pegs within the shooting area and the pheasants, Hungarian partridge, and ducks are moved towards the shooters providing the maximum number of shooting opportunities for our hunters. The birds quickly reach a very high accelerated speed and fly at mixed and varying heights. that provide for a mixture of varying and challenging shooting opportunities. 

The numbered pegs are laid out with either 1 or 2 shooters per peg and spread out in a straight line. When the horn sounds it signifies that the shooters need to get ready and load their guns that the drive is getting ready to start, the birds are moved and the shoot starts after all of the birds are flushed there will be a sounding of the horn that concludes the drive, signaling everyone to gather up and rotate to the next peg assignment. The rotation is designed this way, allowing everyone to shoot through the complete line of pegs and have an equal opportunity to take birds. 

Shot Birds are retrieved by “picker-ups” who stand well behind the shooters with 3-4 retrieving dogs that will pick up the birds. After the shoot is finished the “picker-ups” will ensure all shot birds are accounted for and retrieved. For the final phase, all hunters now have an opportunity to do a walk-up hunt for the remainder of the afternoon.
