Young hunters will have the opportunity to practice firearms safety, develop shooting skills, and participate in a special pheasant hunt under the guidance of a safe, experienced adult hunter. This course, held by Norco Sportsman's Club, is more than just a day in the field pheasant hunting and is divided into multiple parts, including hands-on instruction in shotgun shooting fundamentals and a mentored pheasant hunt. The range days are held at the Norco Sportsman's club from 6:00pm-8:00pm on the following dates: August 18, 25, September 1, 8, and 15th. The hunt will be Saturday, September 26th. Participants are encouraged to attend as many range days as possible but are required to attend three range days. All participants must have completed hunter education prior to the day of the hunt. All ammunition will be provided by the Norco Sportsman's Club.
The youth pheasant program is designed to provide young hunters with specialized pheasant hunting training and instruction, as well as reinforce what they learned in Basic Hunter Education.
