[bassinblank]

hey guys i did not know if any one was gonna run this hunt again this year i had mentioned it to my club members and we may be trying to run as of right now looks like we may have 8 or 9 guys i am hoping to get more intrest in this hunt so we can hold it i hunt with landisville gunning club i know a few of our members are on here

[ACEarcher]

What time, date, and place is this event? I wanted to go last year, but I was up North for the winter. This year I could swing it.

[bassinblank]

we are shooting for february sometime and it will be at gamecreek in woodstown nj

[McHunter]

I am interested and could probably get 2-3 guys. Unami ran it last year. Not sure if he is trying to put it together again or not. Let me know for sure what date. Game Creek puts on a great day and I have had a ton of fun the last few years.:thup:

[njbowhunter]

I would like to know prices and info when you have it.

[timbouy]

Went to Game Creek last Firday.We had the guys from work there for the first time.I ran a group with my dog,my buddy ran a group with his dogs and Jimmy Eller ran a group with his dogs.There was alot of first timers but everyone did ok.I think I lucked out,the three first timers in my group ended up with 21 pheasant and maybe only 6 get aways.It sure beats working.

Whoa whoa no soliciting no free advertising. lol:razz:

[ACEarcher]

Not my rule, but would you like an app. to be a sponsor NJbowhunter?;)

[Unami]

If you guys are interested I will stop down to Game Creek and start working on it. I've been swamped at work and haven't been out for Pheasant this year. Any time in mid February would be great for me. Is there anything special or different you would like me to do this year? Give me a little feedback and I will make it happen.

The last few years we did a euro shoot in the morning. Then they supplied a lunch in the clubhouse. After lunch we broke up into groups and headed out into the fields to hunt over the dogs. You could use your own dog or use one of thier guides and dogs. The price was very reasonable for a full day of hunting, the number of birds they had out and lunch included. I don't recall the price we paid last year but I can pull my notes out and find out.

[Unami]

This was the infor from last year.

european style pheasant release. (Not a tower shoot - 80 birds)

what is a european release?

[Unami]

In a euro shoot the birds are released from a patch of woods. The shooters are positioned around the patch of woods. Whatever birds get past the shooters are hunted up with the dogs. Most guys find it a lot more interesting than a tower shoot.

I could easily set up a normal tower shoot for the morning if guys prefer that. Or we could work on something different. Chuckar perhaps? We could do quail if we have some experienced shooters. I wouldn't reccomend the quail for large groups or the less experienced bird hunters. They don't usually get up as high as the other birds and that may cause some safety concerns for a group of guys with mixed experience levels.

unami, i would like to do a game creek hunt with ya again in feb . i have a new over and under to break in. this time ill pay for myself.

[bassinblank]

[Unami]

Anyone who hunts is welcome to coma along :wave:. The more the merrier.

[The Ridge]

I'M In

[ACEarcher]

Do we need a NJ hunting license?:huh:

[bassinblank]

i will get more info i am trying to get a exact # from my cousin on who is gonna go from our club

[Unami]

ACEarcher - You can get a one day license if you are interested. They sell them there at Game Creek. I'm not sure of the cost but it's pretty inexpensive.

[McHunter]

I have possibly three who want to go. I would just need a date to confirm who can go. One question, I saw on their websit you have to be 12 to be on the hunt. However, does this include someone who is just walking and not hunting. My brother has a 10 year old son who likes to come along and watch. Can he join or is that off limits to just walk along?

[bassinblank]

i am not sure i am still working on it it looks like if we can get 30 guys it will be 130 a piece for 150 birds and brunch and groups of 4 in the afternoon trying to confirm this as my cousin has been the the one in contact with the people at game creek i am gonna try and get this set up for mid to late january after extended shotgun is done

[bassinblank]

if you are intrested add your name and contact info as it gets closer i will need the money up front i will not spot anybody the money to insure that we get the full 30 guys and no one has to put extra money out of thier pocket as a surprise because someone did not show

Good stuff Tim...that dude in the grey sweatshirt next to you looks familiar:wave:

[McHunter]

Any final date set yet? I have possibly 3 interested (including me) but I cant get anyone to confirm until I give them a firm date. Let me know.

[robhunt]

This is similar to my club.we call it a circle shoot. A few guys stand in the middle throw the birds in the air and every body in the circle who sees it shoots at it. It's alot of fun!!! We do around a 100-150 birds. In fact the last one for this year is coming up!!!! Can't wait and we serve lunch

[njbowhunter]

I would rather hunt the birds up out of the fields. Whats the fun of throwing birds in the air and shooting them. Its cheaper to shoot clay pidgeons.

It's fun with friends laughing at misses and the high flyers.

well guysi got bad news as for pheasant fest it looks like a bust they are telling us that we need 25 guys and i have not even been able to get close to that number and only about half would get to hunt with dogs in the afternoon so if anyone else is willing to try and get this together have at it
