Youth Pheasant and Waterfowl Kick-off

There was a great turnout at the youth pheasant and waterfowl kick-off event Sept. 21 in Glasgow at the Glasgow Trap Club.

Over 30 area youth showed up and shot trap, and heard info on a variety of topics including Block Management and other access programs, rules and regs, how to ask permission to hunt, waterfowl and upland gamebird ID, using waterfowl decoys and blinds, bear awareness, and how to use and read maps and map apps.

In addition, all the kids left with some cool baseball caps and other outdoor gear and swag. The big prizes of the night were two shotguns donated by Hi-line Sportsmen and Ducks Unlimited.

The event was organized and funded by donations and volunteers from FWP, Hi-Line Sportsmen, Ducks Unlimited, Pheasants Forever, the Glasgow Trap Club, BLM, Hi-Line Precision Shooters and Badger Creek Shooting Sports, and the family of Bernie Hart.
