Training Hunt

Jan. 31, 2004

BBBS of Sedgwick County hosted a Training Hunt for those hunters who had passed their Hunter Education class but had not yet had the opportunity to go afield hunting upland game. Assisted by members of the local Pheasants Forever and Quail Unlimited chapters, and by their Hunter Education instructors, Bigs and Littles alike put their classroom instruction into practical application in the field.

It was a cold and wintery morning, but, everyone enjoyed themselves, learning to bust clay targets and getting to watch some quality dog work in the field. And some of the hunters got to take home quail for supper that night!

Everyone was bundled up, cause it was cold! A light freezing mist fell all morning long, but everyone had a great time any way!	A Little is getting ready to break the incoming target!
Mike is showing this Little just how the gun should be mounted.	Mike is showing this Little the proper shooting stance.
Here are two hunters with their prized bag. Someone is having quail for supper!	Volunteer Dan is shown with one of the Brittanies that were working the birds for the new hunters.
A Big is helping a Little move in on a pointed bird while the dog handler looks on.	Gene is shown giving the young hunters last minute instructions before following the dogs after the birds.
DeVante says, "That last one kicked a bit!"	Big smiles were on everyone's face as everyone was enjoying the day outdoors!
Once the shooting skills were practiced, an exciting game of Knockout sharpened everyones shooting.
