Canned pheasant hunting
Well,been invitedon a guided pheasant hunt sponsored by a local bank in a couple of weeks. They run the entire show and pretty much do everything but pull the trigger when the birds fly. 6am catered breakfast, they drive you out to where the hunt is, they tell you where to walk and they run the dogs and have "blockers" at the end of the field to make sure the pheasants fly. They said there will be both wild and raised pheasants butnot sure what % of wild vs. raised there will be. After the hunt they have a catered lunch and will even dress your birds for you it you want them to.
This is a free deal for about 30-40 customers of the bank and somehow the breadcrumbs fell far enough from the table where I was able to go this year if I want to.
I've pheasant hunted one time but didn't get anything although a few of the guys I hunted with did. It sounds like this is an almost guaranteed thing to get your limit of 3 birds but I'm not sure how sporting it sounds.
Is this something that will be enjoyable or should I just pass on it.
Thanks for any input.
