Driven Days:

The bag numbers that can be booked is as follows:

Driven Days – 100 – 250 birds
Late season – Bag limits may be reduced

On our Driven days Shooting parties must pay for the bag booked, whether or not they shoot that number on the day.
Glennoo Game Sports will ensure that sufficient birds are flushed over the guns to reach the bag limit.
Glennoo Game Sports makes no warranty whatsoever as to the amount of shooting each individual gun receives.
We offer a 5% overage Free Off Charge on our Driven days.

We recommend teams of 8-10 guns maximum for our driven days.

Walked Up/Rough Shooting Days:

Our walked Up/Rough Shooting Days are offered from 1st September until the end of January. It must be understood that on these late season days Guns are paying for the days shooting and enjoyment and not for the size of bag.

However we do expect that a party of 4/5 guns would shoot in the region of 20/25 head of game, a mixture of partridge, pheasant, duck, woodcock and snipe.

On our Walked Up/Rough Shooting Days guests should note that all birds hit with shot are part of the bag whether they are retrieved or not. We make every effort to pick the birds with our professional picking up team that are deemed hit by the guns.

We recommend teams of 4-8 guns maximum for our Walked Up/Rough Shooting days.

Wild Duck Shooting

Our wild duck days consist of decoying or flighting wild ducks from either a boat or the shores of Lough Erne as well as other loughs and splashes. We have numerous natural loughs in beautiful settings. We have shooting rights to parts of Lough Erne. This includes two large private islands where there is a further opportunity of pheasants, partridge and woodcock. The islands and water are only accessible by boat and so a certain level of fitness is required for embarking and disembarking of the boat. No extra assistance can be offered. The boat is accessed by a jetty.

We recommend a team of 4 – 6 guns for this wild duck shooting

Woodcock, Snipe & Wild Bird Shooting:

It must be understood that on these days we shoot wild birds. Success depends on a combination of favourable weather across Europe and Russia, migration and competence of the gun. Glennoo Game Sports makes no guarantee on size of the bag on these days but we do our best to ensure you and your team have the most enjoyable day possible. Please note a Woodcock ban due to freezing conditions is beyond our control and up to you to insure against.
