You're Invited!

Calling all 16-17-year-olds who want to learn how to hunt upland birds - you're invited to attend this free 5-day course run by the Ohio Department of Natural Resources & Pheasants Forever Miami County + Greater Dayton Chapters! This course consists of 4 educational classes and culminates in a real pheasant hunt for participants who complete every day. The only costs are your time and your license - you must bring proper clothing/footwear for the weather. Bringing a safe shotgun in a proper case to practice with is highly encouraged if you have one. This is a "rain or shine" event.

  • DAY 1 Thursday, 10/8 6:00PM-8:30PM
  • DAY 2 Sunday, 10/11 11:00AM-6:00PM
  • DAY 3 Thursday, 10/22 6:00PM-8:30PM
  • DAY 4 Wednesday, 10/28 6:00PM-8:30PM
  • DAY 5 Saturday, 10/31 7:30AM-12:00PM - Hunt day!
Classes will cover game identification, regulations, gear walkthroughs, firearm safety, shooting practice, a bird dog demonstration, bird cleaning, and mock hunt before the real one. This course will arm new hunters with the confidence and education they need to go upland hunting on their own & get them invested in conservation with relationships that will last a lifetime in the field.

Up to10 participants will be selected - join the waitlist in case a spot opens up!
