Pheasant Hunting Lodges For Bird Hunts
Posted by Unknown on 1:44 AM with No comments
People who expect a rough outdoor experience at pheasant hunting lodges are in for a big surprise. This is not the kind of place where one camps out in tents or sleeping bags around a campfire, cooking the day's catch complemented with canned food. These are luxury lodges with well-equipped and spacious cottages, chefs to prepare sumptuous meals, and guides to help guests on the hunt.
There are, however, lodges of all stripes and shapes that offer different types of bird hunts and shooting options. For instance, some raise pheasants, quails, chukar and doves and make it a sport by releasing them right in front of a group of hunters cocked and waiting to pull the trigger. The guests on such tours just have to lock and load, aim properly at the flock of birds and pull the trigger.
It's an easy sport and guarantees a good catch. Of course, it's not really what one would call a bird hunt. It's more like target practice, with no pointers sniffing out birds in the wild and no call to flush out a covey, aim and shoot quickly before they fly out of range. A lodge that can offer such a wild bird hunt is the most desired choice among hunters.
Of course, they have all the same kind of amenities including luxury cottages, on-site meals and all the comforts of modernity that people expect these days. Apart from the dogs, many lodges also offer training and hunting gear, if needed. Some will additionally offer to help with licenses and permits that hunters need for compliance with bird hunting regulations.
But the key to what makes a lodge a really good choice is the type of hunting grounds it offers and the availability of all kinds of wild birds within the property. It's important to find a place that has plenty of wooded areas, marshes, waterways and reservoirs including ponds, lakes, rivers, streams and brooks that attract ducks and migrating birds. On such properties lush with flora and fauna, it's not so hard to hit the bag limit very quickly.
The location also affects the topography, which in turn makes a big difference for bird hunts. Some lodges are set in the vast openness of prairie grasslands, while others are surrounded by mountainous foothills and rocky ridges. Those aiming for migratory birds will do well to look for a place close to the coast where there are plenty of marshlands.
The experience also depends a lot on the kind of package chosen. The best ones are all-inclusive packages for three to five day stays, while the weekend trips are the most affordable ones. In any case, guests rarely need to worry about anything else apart from their shooting skills.
The thing that most people remember afterwards about pheasant hunting lodges is the incredible rush and thrill of the kill. But the meals are quite memorable too, since the food is from the fresh catch that the hunter has literally put on the table. The satisfaction is doubled because it's expertly cooked into mouth-watering bird meat dishes by expert chefs.
