Pheasant shooting in Ayrshire

Pheasant shooting in Scotland is as varied as its landscape with something for all abilities.

About pheasant shooting in ayrshire

From The Borders, Glasgow and Edinburgh in the south to where the Highlands begin in Inverness and to the north, there are plenty of driven pheasant shoots to choose from – not forgetting the Scottish islands. If you’re travelling to shoot in Scotland from elsewhere, then it might be worth making a trip of it and organising a mixed sporting week combining fantastic pheasant shooting with stalking or some rough shooting.

DougarieBGA ASSURED

Ayrshire, United Kingdom

Dougarie Estate is located on the Isle of Arran and has various packages from driven days through to rough days. The Estate is made up of varied terrain and has breath-taking views in all directions. As featured on Tom Straker's Game Eater films under Pheasant (Episode 8) and Mallard (Episode 6). We shoot back to back driven days on Fridays and Saturday from the beginning of November through to the end of January. We also offer partridge only days in October. The main driven days tend to be best suited for parties of minimum of 8 guns and the number of birds taken very much depends on the standard of shooting, however our aim is to provide bags between 120 to 200 birds per day. Guns will usually get around the estate in their own 4WD vehicles. Please contact us as we are always delighted to discuss potential options with those looking to make a booking.

Carnell EstatesBGA ASSURED

Ayrshire, United Kingdom

With over 2000 acres of Ayrshire parkland, woodland and rolling meadows, Carnell Estates provides a magnificent setting for a shooting party. The Carnell Shoot is well over a 100 years old. The 15th century main house is renowned for its luxury accommodation, great hospitality and fun. Sitting within spectacular gardens the house is very private. A main day usually consists of three drives, 11s around the fire-pit by the main house, out for a further drive before returning to the house for drinks then lunch. After lunch, we try to get in two drives but on days with shorter light, it may be one. Bags vary between 200-500 per day. With quality, high driven pheasants and partridges, back to back days can be arranged with over night accommodation in the house. The house is comfortably furnished with elegant, log-fired reception rooms. There are 10 bedrooms for guests with king or twin beds each having its own bathroom. Next season, we will be offering a few mini-driven days in the outside woods with bags from 70-150 birds per day for up to 8 guns. The Estates have been home to the Findlay Family for several hundred years and now home to Micky Findlay and his partner Adrienne Eastwood. They are both on hand to ensure fantastic hospitality is had whether for a group of friends or a corporate day.
