PHEASANT SHOOTS

As avid hunters, we implemented European-style pheasant tower shoots at Stella to extend our hunting season and provide a unique outdoor activity for corporate entertaining. Pheasant Tower shoots are a relaxed, social alternative to traditional hunting and do not require a license.

  • At the sound of a horn, hunters rotate around shooting stations so that each gets a fair shot
