Waterfowl hunting in Aberdeen, Scotland

Scotland is famed for having some of the most beautiful scenery in the world but one of our hidden gems is that we also have phenomenal waterfowling. Aberdeenshire is one of the top places within the world to hunt pinkfooted geese, every winter the UK has the pleasure of playing host to some 366,000 of these visitors from Iceland. The vast majority head for Aberdeenshire and disperse across major roosts such as Loch Skene, Loch of Strathbeg and Montrose Basin and of course a host of smaller roosts scattered across Aberdeenshire.

We are lucky to be based close to the vicinity of Skene and have ever growing hunting grounds that cover a wide range of Aberdeenshire which allow us to rotate shooting and rest areas so that they may stay productive throughout the entire season. Having exclusive rights to these prime areas puts us in good stead to deliver first class waterfowling on a regular basis. During the off season we work just as hard during the season to expand our hunting grounds and bring our clients the best of what Scottish waterfowling has to offer. Along with pinkfooted geese we also have the chance to shoot greylag geese which tend to arrive from November onwards. Although the majority of our bags are made up of pinkfeet there will be the occasion to target greylag only feeding fields for those traveling from overseas who wish to shoot a mixed bag.

 

THE HUNTING

Our Scottish outfitting partner aims to deliver wingshooting holidays to suit all our clients needs and they love nothing more than tailoring bespoke packages for those who know exactly what they want.

This is for those waterfowlers who cant get enough of birds cupping up into the deeks, it offers enthusiasts the chance to take their time soaking up some of Aberdeenshire’s finest wing shooting. It’s a perfect package for those traveling from abroad as it allows guests to hunt different species across a wide range of beautiful locations.
