Pheasant Hunting Can Be Physically Demanding

Chasing pheasants in their native habitat can present substantial physical challenges for those of us that are no longer at the same level of fitness we were in high school. If you have never been half way through a patch of broke-over cane or a section of CRP grass when both legs cramped someday you will.

Because it is not the nature of a pheasant to indefinitely hold for a point, we are unable to conduct hunts like the mule drawn wagons of the southern quail plantations. The areas we hunt can accommodate hunters that may have some physical limitations and a pheasant's habit of running to the end of cover, allows us to position blockers where we expect the action to be.

Another option is a Kansas statute providing for the issuance of a special permit for a disabled hunter to ride in or on a vehicle while participating in the hunt

That license application is available from Kansas Department or of Wildlife and Parks and requires a doctor's signature for submission. We have a six-wheel-drive Polaris Ranger, with side-by-side seating that is available for this purpose.

To obtain an application for this permit you can contact Kansas Department of Wildlife and Parks at 620-672-5911 or you can also call us here at the ranch at 785-373-4835.
