South West Sporting: The Ultimate Simulated Game Shooting Experience in Exmoor, Devon & Somerset

Nestled among the rolling hills, dramatic valleys, and heather-cloaked moorland of Exmoor lies one of the South West's best-kept sporting secrets:

South West Sporting, a premier provider of simulated game shooting experiences across Devon and Somerset. For shooting enthusiasts, corporate groups, or newcomers eager to sample the thrill of traditional driven days—without the pressures or prerequisites of live game—simulated shooting offers the perfect blend of challenge, excitement, and countryside charm.

What Is Simulated Game Shooting?
Simulated game shooting recreates the style, pace, and feel of a traditional driven game day using high-quality clay targets instead of live quarry. Carefully designed flushes mimic pheasant, partridge, grouse, and even high Exmoor drives. It's dynamic, fast-paced, and immensely enjoyable—ideal in the off-season or for those who want the sporting experience without the environmental impact.  South West Sporting has perfected this craft, delivering days that feel authentic, social, and brilliantly fun. 

The Exmoor Advantage.   Exmoor is renowned for its dramatic topography and some of the highest pheasant drives in the country. South West Sporting takes full advantage of this natural terrain, crafting simulated drives that feel remarkably lifelike.
