Simulated Game Shooting
Simulated game shooting started at Mill Farm Lurgashall in 2010 we replicate the game shoot in all detail with the exception of only shooting clay pigeons.
We start the day off with a full safety brief over a bacon roll, tea and coffee. We then head off for the first two drives of the day before returning for elevenses and a refill. We then continue to do two further drives. We try to replicate Pheasant, Grouse and Partridge shooting within the different drives spread around the locations utilised on the farm.
We shoot with a maximum of 18 guns per day, with six of those shooting, six of those loading and the remaining six out of harms way. This allows for plenty of shooting as well as a good amount of social interaction in an outdoor environment.
We ask everyone to wear appropriate outdoor clothing, footwear and ideally bring along their own ear protection a suitable hat.
Once everyone has finished shooting we then head to one of the many local pubs available for a two course lunch.
