Situated on the edge of the Grampian Mountains, Glenogil is a renowned sporting estate lying high in the Angus Glens. Glenogil is one of the Famous Angus Glens, and in conjunction with Auchnacree comprises the whole of the Highland part of Glenogil. The ground rises from around 600 feet above sea level to over 2,300 feet at Dog Hillock and Hill of Glansie. It has recently undergone much work and investment and now offers some of the best grouse, pheasant and partridge shooting in the country. It is highly accessible being a short distance from the main Dundee/Aberdeen trunk road.

Grouse Shooting

The grouse moor extends over 20,000 acres and comprises the Glenogil, Glen Moy, Glenqueich, Fern and Nathro beats. After a few years of very light shooting to allow stocks to build up combined with an intensive management programme, and following a highly successful season in 2008, 2009 has seen some spectacular days shooting with a number of days between 150 and 250 brace, the best day of 255 ½ brace. We look forward to offering a number of driven days of 80 – 150 brace to full teams of 8 or 9 guns from late August to the end of September, 2010.

Pheasant and Partridge shooting

Occupying nearly 3,000 acres of low ground and woods, the pheasant and partridge shooting at Glenogil has earned a deserved reputation as one of the best driven shoots in the area. The mix of established woods, marginal bracken on the fringe of the grouse moor, and deep gullies provides a wonderful mix of drives to provide high and testing birds for the best of guns. Drives include The Beaches, Auchnacree, Glenley, Mochrie and St Arnolds rivalling anything in the country. Partridges are shot from late September with pheasants following on from late October to the end of the season. Days between 150 and 300 birds will be available for full teams of up to 9 guns in 2010.

Fishing

Salmon fishing is available on the nearby Downie Park and Airlie beats.

Accommodation

Travelling teams of guns have a choice of local hotels in the area, and we are happy to assist with accommodation requirements.
