This unique mixture of lanscape provide you exclusive opprtunity to bag the iconic species from outer hebrides including Grouse, Woodcock, Snipe, Ducks, Geese, Red Deer .Only entire wild species.
Driven Woodcock
Garynahine provides some of the most prolific driven woodcock shooting in Scotland.Migrating woodcock arrive in large numbers from scandinavia in late autumn and winter .The majority are shot in the two large blocks of woodland during 2 consecutive days and a full team of beaters with experienced dogs are on duty each day .These shoots are renowned to consistently producing good numbers of birds. This is a unique opportunity to experience what we consider to be the most challenging driven shooting available ,with the ultimate accolade of the elusive Right and left at Woodcock a real possibility.
Grouse and woodcock shooting over pointers
With no reared birds , the shooting is entirely wild .In partnership with our sister estate in sutherland and her english pointers kennel (morness kennel) we run shooting over pointers looking for grouse,snipe and woodcock depending the season.Our first class pointers bloodline will provide you memorable moment on the moor with some stunning pictures .Be able to follow such dogs chasing these fantastic sport birds is a peak in the agenda of a true sports man.We run the day on the most traditionnal manner , only 2 guns at the time to go on point and not going twice at the same birds. We manage our ground for the next generation and our policuy nclude a bag limit depending the stock count and we do not go twice on the same beat
