PBS Youth Hunt: August 2009 in Glorious Utah
« on: January 29, 2009, 02:10:00 PM »
The PBS, in its commitment to the future of bowhunting, is proud to sponsor The 2009 Doug Kerr Memorial Youth Leadership Hunt/Camp.

Simply put, the Youth Hunt's mission is to develop young bowhunters into the next generation of bowhunter leadership.

With youth leadership being an essential focus of the Youth Hunt, these young hunters will also be taught, a in well crafted, and hands on manner, woodsmanship, and hunting skills. They will be exposed to, and will be involved in, philosophical campfire discussions surrounding the motives, and ethics of why we take to the hunt.

Beyond the wonderful pedagogy that the young hunters will be offered, they will also have the opportunity to hunt spike and cow elk in Utah.

Applications for this wonderful program can be found on the PBS website (following), or can be obtained from the PBS office.

Please take advantage of this opportunity.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me:

Guys & Gals / Fellow PBS members,

This bowhunt will be something special,and is open to Children of PBS members and YPBS members.
A parents or guardian will occompany the youth on this hunt.

The opportunity to hunt elk is truely secondary to the developement of the youth as leaders in the community and the bowhunting world. (This hunt is for leadership development and training to help them become articulate in this pursuit that we love, that they may help to maintain & forward bowhunting into the future.)

Our goal is to help the youth have a snap shot of and to understand:
1)Safety while bowhunting
2)Wildlife and the struggles it faces.
3)Our job as stewards and conservationists in the west. (Including private and public land.)The current system, and possible future scenarios. They will learn from Biologists, Ranchers,  and Leaders in conservation.
4)Pittman - Robertson
5)Law enforcement - Conservation officers
6)Basic Survival
7)Orienteering
8)Tracking
9)Game care
10)Many others

The mentors in camp have over 300 yrs of combined elk hunting experience. Having said that it ain't gonna be shooting carp in a barrell. This is hunting. (Utah has an elk harvest rate on the bowhunt of well under 20%).

Don't worry it won't be all work an no play. We have some real fun planned as well.  :thumbsup:  

ALL APPLICATIONS NEED TO BE RECEIVED BY FEBRUARY 26TH AT THE PBS HOME OFFICE

FYI : (There was a great article on this hunt in the 2nd quarter of your PBS magazine.)

PM me if you have any questions

Absolutely phenomenal opportunity at that.  I was a mentor on one of these hunts in the past, circa 1999.  I wish I would have had this kind of opportunity as a youngster!

I sent in my son's application and we hope to be Utah bound in August!  I've heard some great things about the previous PBS youth hunts.

My older son was on the last one and it was an amazing experience. I don't know who got more out of it, my son or me! I learned tons from Larry & Blake Fischer, Dick, Vicki & Yote Robertson, Billy Lewis, Bo Slaughter, Doug Campbell, Kevin Bahr, Mark Baker, Joseph Meyer, etc... It was the who's who of bowhunting. Still debating on whether to submit my 15 year old daughter's and 16 year old son's application to be considered. I'd just hate to have them take a spot away from some kid that doesn't have the opportunities they have? Although, I'd also hate for them to miss an opportunity to hunt with and learn from the likes of Guy Perkins, Jeff & Daniel Holchin, Jarrod Feiner, Blake Fischer, Rich Roskelly, etc.

Yes, it's an incredible opportunity. The fellas that have organized this hunt are first-rate people, hunters, and great company too.

This hunt will be the superlative hunting experience for a young hunter.

Thanks to those who have spoken to their experience with this hunt.    :thumbsup:

Keep the questions coming. And, please bombard the PBS office with application requests....

Terry, thanks for including me in your list of "who's who" of bowhunting.  But I think I would fit better on the list of "who's that?" of bowhunting.  
Seriously, this is an incredible opportunity for the qualifying youth applicants and will be a tremendous bonding experience between the youths and their mentors.  I know from experience that lifelong memories and friendships will be formed. Someone might even actually kill an elk, too!

One of the great things about this particular hunt is the timing.  This hunt occurs the week before school starts for my son.  Last year he had to miss over a week for our western hunt, which caused problems at school.

This will be a great hunt!  Great country to introduce people to western hunting.  A good mix of moderate to challenging terrain, plus hunting with guys who know it well.
