About this Event:
The youth pheasant program is designed to provide young hunters with specialized pheasant hunting training and instruction, as well as reinforce what they learned in Basic Hunter Education. Young hunters will have the opportunity to practice firearms safety, develop shooting skills, and participate in a special pheasant hunt under the guidance of a safe, experienced adult hunter. This program includes 5 training dates, August 23rd, 30th, September 6th, 13th, and 20th followed by the mentored hunt on Saturday, September 24th. While participants are encouraged to attend all 5 training days, you are required to attend at least two of the five training days to participate in the mentored pheasant hunt.
