The bird hunting is fairly good, but you have to find the decent cover, PA Gobbler. Where I hunt, the grouse hunting is best along the wide bench near the top of the mountain. The gypsy moth damage made for great grouse tangles. Pheasants are a thing of the past, though. I grew up during the heyday of pheasant hunting. At one time around where I live, it was nothing to see 200 of them in a day's hunting. The stocked birds of today are a pale imitation of the wild stuff we used to have. I do take my setters for a day or two of preserve hunting each year, but it isn't the same. They don't care. They love it all the same. A photo of one of my setters from the past follows:

I have raised and trained English setters for over forty years, but am slowly getting out of it. My legs don't like grouse hunting as much as they used to (LOL). A guy you might like to get in touch with would be Andy Wert. He lives in the Mifflintown area, and does a good bit of bird dog work. He posts frequently on the PA site.
