Continental Pheasant Tower Shoots at the Beretta Shooting Grounds simulate an English-style driven pheasant hunt. There are 250 birds released from a hilltop as hunters test their luck at shooting the high-flying pheasants. Hunters will rotate between shooting stands as professional guides use cocker spaniels and labrador retrievers pick up downed birds. There is a maximum of 20 hunters for each Tower Shoot, so advance registration is highly recommended.
