I know pheasants forever does this in my area. I also know that most sportsmens clubs will help if asked. Some local Boy Scout leaders can be helpful sometimes too.

In my neck of the woods there is a bunch of us that will even take kids hunting on our land. When we had a WTU chapter we even used to by over 100 JR licenses a year. If you know a kid that ever wants to go hunting let me know. I would be more then happy to take him. I live in Schuylkill county. Heck here is my # 570-527-2024 Adam

well, its hard, i tried to get boy scouts to do it but they are afraid of liability thing .

fishing, its easy,we do it a few times at cross forks and hyner ,pa.

guns, not many want involved in it.

we have womens thing every year now to teach how to shoot a gun but when you mentioned kids hunting ,not anyone raises a hand.

i dont know anyone that does it here or wants to .

we used to take kids out with us if parents ok it years ago when lots of deer were here,

many times we got them lost also, ended up over about 1 mile away, yelling,OH OH, YO HO, YOOOOOOOO,HOOOOOOOO,I REMEMBER THAT SOUND FADING OVER MOUNTAIN.:)

its wonder my dad did not have a nervous breakdown but that was how tough kids were then and parents would not get mad if you were lost for awhile in snow blizzard.

i remember losing a whole crew of kids in snowstorm,you could not see 10 ft and we had about 5 new kids around 14 years old in crew.

no radios then and 10 above zero,high winds.

we all carried silver salutes in our pockets in case wse got lost in a storm etc.

boy, they were loud when they went off and dad knew it was one of us by sound.


i know no one TODAY in my area that will do it, heck, we are afraid to reload for anyone now do to how things are in world.

my dog bit a kid a few years ago that i was learning how to catch a baseball, his parents came to my home looking for a LAWSUIT.

after that, i stopped things like this and raised my homeowners ins to 350,000 on liability.

heck, i cant even raise pheasants in my yard anymore, gov said i need permit and now i am not zoned right.

we stopped the pheasant thing as some of dads got out of hand and started shooting phesants for kids.[:@]

man, its hard to be kid anymore and adult too.......;)
