Join MDC staff for an exciting opportunity to get youth introduced to the sport of small game hunting. We will be holding a mentored youth hunt for new youth hunters between the ages of 11-15 that have not small game hunted. This program will take place in 2 different portions. The first portion will be held at Jay Henges Shooting Range on Monday August 19th. The initial portion will include participants receiving their Hunter Education Certification as well as a presentation covering squirrel hunting basics, equipment, regulations, and a chance to practice shooting on the range. NOTE: Participants must attend this portion of the program to be able to attend the hunt. The hunt will take place on Saturday September 21st at Wil-Nor Outdoors in Dittmer, MO. Hunters will meet at the clubhouse on the morning of the hunt where they will be led by an experienced MDC mentor and take to the woods. Upon completion of the hunt, proper game cleaning and care will be demonstrated to the hunters. There will also be a cooking demonstration after the hunt with the chance to sample a variety of different squirrel dishes. This is a great opportunity to get new youth hunters involved with the ample small game hunting opportunities that Missouri has to offer. |
