The entire Smith farm is made up of an ideal combination of food and cover.
Every square inch is prime pheasant habitat.
In fact, you can spot the farm from miles away, because it's so birdy-looking. Hunting on his land for birds is no different than the best wild bird hunt you'll ever go on. The 2001 outlook for the fall hunting season should be tremendous in our managed areas. Supplemental winter feeding of high energy corn, predator control and the very important winter cover of shelterbelts has our areas wintering large numbers of pheasant, partridge and grouse. With favorable spring nesting conditions, the fall of 2001 should see as good as, if not better, bird hunting as we experienced the fall of 2000.
