The Central Prairie Field Trial Club has decided to cancel its Spring Field Trial to be held at Sandy Run this Saturday. I believe this is a wise decision based on the average age of the participants, keeping them safe needs to be the highest priority.

With that said, I still consider small group, 2 to 4 people, upland hunting is still a safe activity for healthy, lower-risk hunters. I have plenty of pheasant and quail to hunt and now some more open fields for this weekend and tomorrow looks like it will be a perfect day for upland hunting.

Our annual Youth Pheasant Hunt hosted by the Cumberland Trail Chapter of Quail and Upland Game Alliance is coming up on Saturday, March 14 from 8:00 am to 4 pm.   The cost is only $10/hunter, and each hunter will get to hunt for two pheasants,  a door prize and food and drinks.  Clay pigeon shooting will be available all day.   This hunt has limited space, so please call to make your reservations for the time you desire to hunt.   Participants must be 16 and younger, have a hunting license and be accompanied by an adult with a FOID card.
