Department of Fish and Wildlife sponsored pheasant hunts for 2022

These hunts are by special draw and you can enter through the DFW or DFG website is you are a Junior or Womens hunter. Put for those of us who are not, you can research these properties and if they are on public land you can show up the day or days after the scheduled hunt and hunt the left over pheasants as long as it is during the hunting season and you are following all the rules and state and federal regulations.


Just a special note: if you are not drawn for these hunts you can not just show up the day after the hunt unless the regular pheasant season is open. Some of these hunts are before regular pheasant season so follow the laws and don't trespass or get yourself in trouble !!!
