So This Is Christmas

Merry Christmas is such an infectious feeling I like to feel that way all year around.

So if you are visiting just before Christmas, just after Christmas or even here on Christmas day I am sure you will find something of interest for you and in the spirit of Christmas.

It may be said that Christmas is no longer a celebration but this must be spoken by people that have never had trouble closing their eyes on Christmas Eve in an expectation of what maybe left for them on the carpet under the tree.

I continue to look forward to the surprise on my Grandchild's faces to this day at Christmas events.

Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas

Wild Pheasant Hunting Has Become Very Popular Lately

By Jerri Perry


There are all sorts of things to consider when you go wild pheasant hunting. The first and most important is your gear. The second thing to think about is the location. There are many other details to keep in mind too, in order to have an enjoyable and successful hunt. Safety should be at the forefront of everything you do.

Gearing up isn't always the easiest thing to do. Making sure that you have a working and accurate shotgun is a must. Ammunition should be kept available and gun safety should be observed at all times. Do not ever take a weapon out into a hunt without first knowing that it is safe. Taking it to a firing range is a smart way to ensure that you are using a good firearm and also to make sure you know how to use it properly.

Hiking is a much less "equipment intensive" hobby and requires much less equipment than going on a hunt. All you need, really, is weather appropriate clothing and good footwear. Like going on a hunt, it also puts you into wild habitats. You can "arm" yourself with a camera and treat it much the same.

Knowledge is an essential ingredient for a successful hunt. You must know the animal that you are after. Understanding which habitat is suitable for them will help you locate them. Knowing what time of day or night that they are active can give you the best ability to find and target them.

Knowledge about the area that you are in can be a great advantage to have as well. Knowing the terrain is a benefit because it will allow you to find the suitable habitat quickly and efficiently. It will also provide you with the best ways in and out of an area without getting too far out of the way.

Doing things the legal way is also something that must be a top priority. Conservation efforts have been put into place for many big game animals so as not to endanger the species. There are some who aren't at as much risk as others but you can't presume to know more than the people who set the limits. Staying at the legal bag limit will help ensure that you don't damage the species' ability to procreate.

Also make sure not to take more than the legal limit. If you do that and get caught, you'll get fined for every one over that you've taken. Fines can add up very quickly and if you don't have the extra money to spend, it can get quite expensive.

Wild pheasant hunting can be a great way to get outdoors and enjoy the natural world. Make sure that the first thing on your mind at all times is safety as firearms can be deadly. Double check all of your equipment to make sure that it is all functioning and appropriate. Make certain that the area you are hunting in is appropriate and that you have all of the right documentation.
