Les Cinq Mille
Les Cinq Mille – Simulated Game Day
Date: July 2026 — date to be announced
Time: Morning start
Event Type: Simulated Game Shooting Experience
Location: Château, French Countryside near Paris
Price: From €500 per peg — pegs shareable
Information: A full simulated game day at a historic château estate in the French countryside — five drives, 5,000 clays, and full hospitality throughout. The ideal preparation for driven bird shooting, or simply an exceptional day in extraordinary surroundings.
About
Set in the rolling fields and ancient woodland of the French countryside within easy reach of Paris, this is a day that mirrors a traditional driven shoot in every detail — except the birds are clay.
Five fully simulated bird drives are laid out across the estate, with six machines per drive launching over 1,000 clay pigeons per drive over the line of guns. The variety of drives — representing pheasants in woodland and partridges on steep banks — means every stand is different, and every shot counts.
This is the perfect introduction to driven bird shooting for women who want to understand what a real season day feels like before they're on a live shoot. It is equally well-suited to experienced shots looking to sharpen their eye ahead of the season, or simply to enjoy an exceptional day in exceptional company.
Pegs can be shared — if you want to share the experience as well as the shot, that is entirely possible.
Five thousand clays, one château, and the kind of day you will still be talking about in September.
