Annual Gilles/PF Farm Youth Pheasant Hunt Coming Up

Sun, November 03, 2019

One of my favorite and most well-run youth upland hunts is coming up at the end of this month.  If you or anyone you know with young hunters is interested please read the details below!

Youth Pheasant Hunt:

The youth pheasant hunt will be the weekend following Thanksgiving Day:  Saturday, Nov. 30th, and Sunday, Dec. 1st at the Gilles Farm, 22025 N. Maher Rd, north off of Rt. 90 west of Princeville. Pheasants Forever will provide each youth 2 pheasants to be hunted on those 2 days.  There will be 3 hunting groups with dogs, dog handlers, and bird setters.  We will take 6 kids to the field, but only 2 will hunt at one time. Each child will have the opportunity to shoot 2 pheasants. Kids 10 years old through high school may attend the hunt. They MUST have taken the hunter safety class and passed.

Choose from these times on Saturday or Sunday

  8:00a – 10:00a
10:00a – 12:00a
12:00p –  2:00p
  2:00p –  4:00p

Please call ahead to schedule your hunt time.

Pheasants Forever will provide each youth 2 pheasants to be hunted on these days. Each group will take 5 kids with their parent or guardian field to hunt the birds. Groups will also include dogs, dog handlers, and bird setters.  PLEASE BE SURE TO WEAR YOUR ORANGE! ​
