Hunter Safety Courses
While we all like to have fun in the field and chase pheasants for miles, safety is one of the most important aspects. We promote and encourage hunter safety in the field. Hunter education classes show both youth and adults the proper way to hold, maneuver and practice proper gun care. We at Iowa believe it is essential for kids to become familiar with gun operation and be comfortable with handling their firearm. For more information on our youth hunts, please contact us through our website. If you are interested in enrolling yourself or your child in the Iowa hunter education course, please click the link below.
Mentored Hunts
The future of our sport relies on recruiting new hunters. To help promote those efforts and educate people about the importance of what Pheasants Forever, we host an mentored hunts. These fun and educational events showcase the importance of our organizations mission and provide an opportunity to introduce new people to the sport.
Annual Banquet
Each year Mahaska County Pheasants Forever has a fundraising banquet. This is a wonderful opportunity for the community to get together and support the habitat and education mission of the chapter.
Because of Pheasants Forever's unique model, all the funds raised at this event will remain under the control of the local chapter committee! This is a key element in allowing the local chapter to accomplish mission locally, and exclusive to Pheasants Forever!
Monthly Meetings
Join us for our monthly meetings! The Mahaska County Pheasants Forever committee would like to invite all members to attend these meetings. We discuss local habitat projects, youth events, annual banquet or other items related to Pheasants Forever and our local community. Meetings are held on the second Monday of every month at the Mahaska County Secondary Roads Shop, 2074 Old Hwy 163, Oskaloosa, IA 52577
Member Hunts
Forming bonds and friendships in the field, all in the spirit of conservation. From time to time we have members getting together as a group to hunt some pheasants in our great state of Iowa.
Social Get-Togethers
The chapter will occasionally get together at the local shooting range for a round of trap or sporting clays. Chapter members and their families are cordially invited. This is a great opportunity to meet new friends, enjoy some great food and have some fun getting ready for hunting season.
Mentor Hunts with Chapter Members
We pair mentors with inexperienced hunters in a hunt for live pheasants in a controlled environment. Participants receive shooting tips, dog training instructions and a chance to shoot live pheasants. All of the young hunters learned some of the finer skills of upland game hunting from our staff. Mahaska County Pheasants Forever is honored to carry on the passion for teaching the next generation of hunters.
