Although this didn't happen and it's well past the season, there is a huge other side to this. According to F&G, the raising of these pheasants is funded directly by the sale of pheasant stamps. In essence, those birds belong to the purchasers of the stamps. I wouldn't mind the selling of...

I believe rigor mortis is the culprit. Either clean them immediately after shooting them or wait a day until rigor mortis is over.

Meh, it's all good. I've met up with a nice group that has welcomed me to hunt with them. Yesterday they brought a new hunter. Just got his license the day before. I spotted a rooster and got the kid lined up to make his first kill. I flushed it or him and he got it in one shot. His father...

Don, I live in Jersey too. I'm in south jersey, Washington twp Gloucester county. Always looking for fellow bird hunters as I seem to be the only one I know that hunts.

Although not a pheasant, I spotted what appeared to be a spruce grouse in South Jersey a few weeks ago. It was in an area that is not huntable and I assume that's why it made it. It's the first grouse I've ever seen. I'd love to see a sustainable grouse/pheasant/quail population in south...

There's one for sale near me for $300 in good shape. Would you buy it if you had the option?

I've got a "beer room". It's small, about 12 by 12. I am a home brewer and have my beer fridge with up to 5 beers on tap in there. My guns are in the closet as well as ammo. When our home brew club meets everyone hangs out in there and in my garage that is attached to the beer room. Oddly...

Lmao, this should be good.

Lol, very true. I'll keep saving my pennies for a dog and a trip to try to shoot some wild birds.

Meh, ya never know. What I know is I'm not ready for wild birds yet. Hopefully I'll get plenty of practice this year.

I'm guessing he singled you out because you were shouting. It kind of felt like you were putting those of us down that don't or can't hunt wild birds. I wasn't personally offended, I'm new and trying to learn everything that I can. These stocked birds are helping me get better so that in a...

Is it hunting? Probably not. Is it all I've got? Definitely. I live in new jersey. All I get are birds stocked by the state. Some day when this pug that I have kicks the can, I'll get a hunting dog, and my kids and I will head west for a real hunting trip, but right now, raising kids and...

I watched it. It was pretty good. Just got the network, so it's only me second flush show
