While hunting snow geese I set out around 100 or more decoys and sit for hours waiting for the birds. When you actually see some coming in it is the best site in the world. Snow geese can be very hard to predict they might not like the slightest thing and fly way because of it. When I actually shoot some I is fun because you get the satisfaction of knowing you got a bird to decoy in. Pheasant hunting is a hard sport. I usually walk miles a day hunting for these birds. While hunting pheasant I like to walk places early in the season, but after we get snow it is fun to road hunt for pheasants in the ditch. I like hunting pheasant because I get to see my dog have fun chasing birds. I like pheasant hunting with groups of people because you cover more ground and can get more birds to fly and have more shots at them. For all the work you do to get a pheasant it is super exciting when you actually get one. My three favorite things to hunt are deer, snow goose, and pheasant. From this paper I hope that more people try to hunt these animals. Hunting makes people happy and is a stress relief. While hunting you learn to enjoy the outdoors.

She was heavy, but finally got her on the ATV and drove her to the barn.…

    My First Deer One brisk 30 degree day in January, when I was nine years old, was a day for which I was extremely excited. My dad got me out of school earlier that day, so we could go deer hunting. I had already shot a turkey the year before, so guns were nothing new to me. We made a quick stop at my house so that we could pick up the .243 youth edition, a really short barreled .243, that my dad had bought just about a month before so that we could go hunting, and I would actually be able to handle the gun. At this point we did not have the hunting land that we do today, so we went to my grandpa’s house and hunted in the clearing of trees behind his house.…
