If you like fast flying birds, fast action and plenty of excitement try a driven shoot done to perfection. The morning starts when twenty hunters arrive at 8:00 am with a warm up at the 5 stand soon to follow. From 8:30 am - 9:30 am the 5 stand is set on flush & flurry so each shooter may warm up for the day's event.
At 9:45 am a brief orientation of safety procedures for ALL the gunners and then it’s off to the pegs. At the sound of the horns all gunners may load up and the birds are driven over the hill side. When the first drive is complete, a horn will sound to unload and move to the next peg. This rotation occurs until ten drives are completed.
For the final phase, all hunters now have an opportunity to do a walk up hunt for the remainder of the afternoon with their own dog.
For added convenience our staff works diligently to clean and package all birds for a fee.
