Woodcock shooting in Kerry is a truly special experience. The birds favour damp woodlands and thick cover, requiring hunters to navigate challenging terrain and rely on the expertise of experienced guides and trained gundogs.

Our knowledgeable guides work closely with a team of gundogs, including English Setters, English Pointers, Springer Spaniels, and German Shorthaired Pointers. These dogs play a vital role in locating and flushing woodcock, showcasing their abilities and the strong bond they share with their handlers.
We are committed to responsible and sustainable shooting practices. Our woodcock shooting days are conducted in accordance with all relevant regulations and with the utmost respect for the birds and their habitat. We believe in preserving this unique sporting tradition for future generations.
