A spectacular day out on Strathmore Estate
When it comes to country pursuits, Simulated Game shooting is becoming an increasingly popular sport because of its flexibility to participate outside of the shooting season.
Simulated Game shooting delivers an experience similar to clay pigeon shooting with drives designed to mirror traditional game shooting. Clays are released in patterns and trajectories that mimic the flight of game birds, offering participants the chance to test their shooting skills and sharpen their focus.
We offer a selection of clays and drives, including pheasant, grouse and partridge, to allow this immersive activity to provide both challenge and thrill in equal measure!
