"3. They provide a way to hunt pheasants in states without a viable bird population.
There's a reason why you don't hunt brown bears in Kansas. Dall sheep in Oklahoma. Or caribou in Texas. Those animals aren't native to those areas. By bringing the animals to you instead of taking your gun to those animals, you mess with the natural balance of things. And you do so for no other reason than your own selfishness. This argument simply isn't right. If you don't understand that, you probably never will. "

Call me crazy but I dont think any Pheasant in the country can call itself Native. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Ok, Had to do it.

As for the topic at hand. Well soo far I cannot form an opinion, I have never been pheasant hunting. However I am going to a preserve tommorow to shoot at some birds. Is it "hunting" probably not. Will it make me addicted and start me searching for places to hunt.............................................. .. hopefully.
