Pheasant hunting is an awesome time, there's no doubt. Nothing like walking along and have a cockbird just bust out of the brush!

How hard is this to do w/o a dog?

[rjolenic]

Very tough (means more walking), but it's more rewarding when you get them without a dog. I use to hunt them without a dog and have taken several pheasants that way. It is definately easier with a dog, but just as exciting.

COUNTYROAD ask CARIBOU how hard it is too do without a dog .he got one with a bow this year. now that was a challenge

[countyroad]

I saw a guy a few years ago on tv hunting pheasant with a longbow. I think it was Byron Ferguson. That guy is that man!!!! That can't be easy. Although for Byron Ferguson it might be.

What area of Ohio has pheasants, or
does everyone just go to shooting reserves???

[countyroad]

I know of one. Outside of Shreve the DNR lets some lose around Thanksgiving.

I believe they are talking mostly about hunting the birds on wildlife areas that have penn raised birds released. I wish the ODNR would put more money into habitat than they do raising birds or buying them. I guess the habitat part would cost too much. It is easier and generates more money to just build a small dyke around everything and provide for duck hunting habitat. I guess stamps generate money and so do sales of lots and lots of ammo.

My dad and I would hunt around the Tiffen area every year when I was young. There were birds everywhere. Some of the corn fields were almost a mile long. Never walked one without kicking up at least six birds. What happened?
