21st Annual Trad Pheasant Hunt

[Rudy Cariello]

Just finished up with our 21st annual pheasant hunt.

My wife, a pal of mine and myself have been putting on the hunt for 21 years now. Kind of fun looking back and seeing all the changes over time.  Some of the kids that started are now attorneys, engineers and tradesmen. Lots of graybeards now!! This year we had 66 shooters and took 13 birds flying.
Many thanks to Terry Bannit and Lamont Granger at the Footed Shaft, John McDonald of Big River Bows, Gordy Mickens from Selway Archery, Cherokee Slim, Dale Karch at Three Rivers, Greg Coffey and Jim Curlee for all the years of donations for door prizes.

Here is a link to an article that was written about last years shoot:

Glad to see the hunt made the paper.  I'll have to look for next years.
