Pigeon shooting in South East

The pigeon does not have a shooting season. The wood pigeon is actually classed as vermin but regarded as one of the countries finest sporting birds.

About pigeon shooting in south east

Known to many as the 'grey grouse', the wood pigeon is usually shot in one of two forms - pigeon flighting or roost shooting. Flighting involves decoying pigeons into a pattern on a field of crop, using fieldcraft or existing 'flight lines'. Providers on GunsOnPegs will often set up hides and decoys for you unless it says DIY. Roost shooting takes place in woods and is more common in winter months.

The Morghew Shoot

Kent, United Kingdom

FORMAL DRIVEN SHOOTING 'NO FRILLS' MINI-DRIVEN SHOOTING ACCOMPANIED WALKED-UP & ROUGH SHOOTING Dear Followers of GunsOnPegs and the Morghew Shoot, It's nice to see us once again featuring in the GunsOnPegs / Lycetts 'Most Viewed Shoots of the Year' Survey. For the 2026/27 game season, we have again offered a full programme of formal driven and accompanied walked-up/rough shooting over the Estate's 2000 + acres of arable and woodland. On the formal driven shooting, all we have left is three pegs on Monday 28th December, which this year is a bank holiday in lieu of Boxing Day, which falls on a Saturday. However, we also have two days on which we could welcome you on one of our new 'no frills' mini-driven days. 'STRICTLY NO FRILLS' MINI-DRIVEN DAYS For the 26/27 season, we're also launching a new format that sits somewhere between formal driven shooting and our popular 'accompanied walked-up and rough shooting' days. On two Saturdays this season, we're inviting solo Guns and groups of friends to reserve INDIVIDUAL PEGS on mini-driven days for up to 10 Guns with a target bag of 70 birds. The cost is £510 inc VAT per peg. The Saturdays we've nominated for 'no frills mini-driven shooting' are Saturdays 12th December and 2nd January 2027. So much for our new mini-driven format. In addition, we still have a lot of availability for our ... 'ACCOMPANIED WALKED-UP AND ROUGH SHOOTING' In the interest of saving you a lot of scrolling ... If you are seeking accompanied walked-up and rough shooting on a SATURDAY, we can still accommodate you on: 28th November 26th December (Boxing Day - four pegs). 9th January (six pegs). If you are seeking accompanied walked-up and rough shooting on MONDAYS to THURSDAYS, we can accommodate you throughout the season. If you're looking for a FRIDAY, we still have space on 20th November, 18th December, New Year's Day, as well as 8th and 15th January. There has been an explosion of interest in rough shooting over the past few years, and we probably offer more accompanied walked-up and rough shooting than any other Estate in the south-east. We assemble teams of between two and seven Guns on all weekdays and some Saturdays throughout the season. Accompanied by one or more of our gamekeeping staff, Guns enjoy a day's walked-up and rough shooting on what is a fully stocked, fed and keepered Estate. Quarry includes five pheasants per Gun, or ducks if shot on one of the upland ponds, plus unlimited snipe (if you're good enough!) as well as pigeons, crows etc. Days can end with a wild duck flight on the Estate's marshland reservoir, for which we make no promises, but where there is also no bag limit. Guns drive around the Estate in their own cars, and given the fine condition of Estate roads, there is no need to bring a 4x4. We don't recommend it, but a bicycle will get you around quite comfortably. For the 26/27 season, the cost ranges from £260 + VAT per Gun on Mondays through Thursday, to £270 + VAT on Fridays and £300 + VAT on Bank Holidays and all available Saturdays. Whereas twenty years ago, nobody would dream of booking accompanied rough shooting until the season was well underway, some Guns are now starting to reserve rough shooting months in advance. I take this as a welcome indication that accompanied rough shooting is no longer the poor relative of driven shooting, but rather a demanding discipline that is highly valued by a growing following of our most experienced Guns. ' BACKGROUND and HISTORY of the ESTATE Morghew Park is one of the Kent's ancient Estates and can trace its history and many of its boundaries back to 968 AD, a century before the Norman Conquest, when its sale for 1450 pence was witnessed and signed by Edgar, arguably the first King of all England. It is located near Tenterden, Kent, and covers more than 2000 acres of arable and woodland, with a pleasing mixture of Wealden upland (small fields, hawthorn hedges and oak standards) descending steeply in places onto traditional marshland. Recently, Morghew Park has absorbed the acreage of Palstre Court Farm, which takes the Estate up onto the Isle of Oxney for the first time. This is an interesting piece of land, having been a Roman settlement, and was more recently gifted by William the Conqueror to his brother Odo, Earl of Kent and Bishop of Bayeux, in the years following 1066. Other landholdings gifted to Odo at this time include the entire manor of Benenden. Palstre Court also offers the loveliest northerly views over the southern end of the Estate. Our land is in a ring-fence, meaning that the Estate is not bisected by any public roads, and several of the drives are around a mile from the nearest public road. Morghew Park is renowned for the warmth and friendliness of its hospitality, its tidy agricultural operation and the beauty of the unspoilt views available from many of its drives. AND FINALLY ... The Morghew Shoot is a popular local institution with a remarkably loyal following for all its shooting formats. The Morghew gamekeepers and shoot captains regularly quiz our Guns on what they most value about the shoot. Over and above the obvious qualities without which no shoot would be popular, three characteristics get mentioned time and again. Firstly, the friendliness of the whole team involved in a day's shooting, from the landowner, gamekeeper and shoot captain right down to the youngest beater. Secondly, the unspoilt beauty of the Estate and its distant views, some of which reach all the way to Fairlight and Hastings on the South Coast. And finally, the high level of organisation, which means that our days, with very rare exceptions, run like clockwork. If you're interested to find out more about any of our three shooting formats, I'll be more than happy to drive you around the Estate for half an hour. Just send an enquiry via the GunsOnPegs website. Regards, Tom Lewis

Bedgebury Park Shoot

Kent, United Kingdom

Bedgebury Park Shoot is set in the wooded valleys of the High Weald in Kent. Owned and run as a family shoot with a few let days, we typically shoot 150 - 250 birds across a large number of drives. The ground is some of the steepest in south east England, which combined with dense woodland makes ideal shooting country just 50 miles from London. We shoot a mixture of pheasant and partridges with wild duck also available. We usually shoot with 8 - 10 guns, with friends / girlfriends and wives also welcome (to a maximum of 18). The day includes all shooting, elevenses, lunch and tea but excludes tips for the keeper.
