How did all the junior hunters make out? I had my two sons and their friend out this morning. They were done by 8 am and heading to breakfast. Great dog work and good shooting by the boys. Organism Tree Plant Trunk

Our Pheasants Forever Chapter had forty eight youth registered to hunt today. My hunter this year was a good shot. We had two points, two birds up, he shot a total of two shots and had his two pheasants.

I think we had a couple kids that didn't show up for their hunt for one reason or other. I asked how many pheasants were harvested and it was thirty three at that time. But, there were still about eight or so kids out in the field on the their hunt. I suspect the total for the day was close to forty birds harvested during the mentored hunt.

Some of our members were heading back out with other kids who hadn't yet limited out after all the scheduled hunts were finished but I got busy with other things and didn't get a final number of birds harvested for the day.

I have a youth scheduled to hunt Tuesday evening after school and will try to get another one or two lined up for evening hunts this week.

We have another forty four youth registered to hunt next Saturday.

Thanks, I forgot rabbit starts tomorrow. New squirrel did.
Thinking about taking the grandson squirrel hunting tomorrow night, and I’ll take the muzzle loader . That way he can shoot some squirrels, and if a doe shows up I’ll just change guns with him. He has his muzzle loader license and doe tag, so we can hunt both.
