Where's this at? Surely not in PA? I thought the game farms had to stick to the seasons established by PAGC? Heck thought my season was over but if I can get a few more in ( even if a guy had to pay for it) heck... My lil girl turns 2 tomorrow.

The place I prefer is 6 miles east of Altoona. I am not making a commercial endorsement, but can say I have been going there since 1985. They are open from September 1st through April 15th. The warmer weather is hard on the dogs so we try for cooler days afield. Always had a great time. Yes, that is my dog, Amy, in the cameo. Hope this helps. All the best...

Just returned from a two-day hunt

Our group went out yesterday afternoon and this morning. We shot 38 birds and had a great time. All the best...

It depends

There were four of us. One fellow had not been pheasant hunting for over thirty years. He quickly got the hang of it and did well. The other guys are old veterans. We still managed to shoot off about ten boxes of shells. At this place, you are billed for killable birds. So if the bird flushes within range and you miss, you still bought the bird. It sounded like flak guns opening up. All the best...

Gil,

SO 250 rounds were expended (10 boxes) to bag 38 birds? A Ratio of 1 bird per 6.57 rounds expended? Do the birds wear Kevlar Body Armor? LOL!

Fortunately, we did not run out of shells or birds. You had to be there to experience the situation. All the best...
