Today I was as proud as a peacock!! my 11 yr old son chance shot his first ringneck pheasant on a state management area, I am 53 and have 3 daughters when his mother was pregnant she said this is your last chance at a boy! Thus his name, LoL   anyway I cant help but wonder what is the difference between shouting a pheasant that was just dropped off of a game commission truck 2 days earlier, or shooting a nice buck from a hunting ranch???  Its really a terrible double standard !!! I feel its the same thing , these animals were all raised on farms and then stocked!! Do you think my 11 year old cares where that bird came from?? Right now he is as happy as can be and so am I .

Congratulations,


    Was your boys picture in a magazine a few months ago? I think it was the whitetail institute magazine. If I recall correctly, he harvested a whitetail buck?   I recognized the last name, but forgot to ask.
 
Thanks!! Yes I did send a pic to whitetail institute of his first whitetail 9 pointer he shot here on our farm but it was two years ago !! didn't even realize they published it !! thanks for telling me I have to check it out!

Great story and perspective Neeb.  The bottom line is you little man had a great time!  As you know they stock a ton of pheasant right across the road from us here.  If you ever run out of birds to hunt, just bring him down and he can shoot one of stocked birds in my driveway or deer pens.  There are normally about 2-6 birds wandering around aimlessly on our property.  Sometimes out at the pool in back!  But that's REALLY hunting... not put n take preserve style that we are so shamelessly a part of!  


BTW - just spent the past 30 hours hunting a 500" Red Stag on my buddies 600+ acre preserve here in PA with my bow.  One of the toughest hunts I've been on, and we still haven't harvested this beast!
 
It was a great experience thanks hershey haven, zmcgill and red golds !!  Mike did you get that big stag yet???   pics please !!! thanks also for the kind words !!
