On April 18, 2026, Greater Denver Pheasants Forever proudly hosted the 2nd Annual Habitat and Wingshooting Adventure for students from Colorado State University. The event focused on introducing students to upland hunting traditions, wildlife habitat conservation, and safe firearm practices in a hands-on outdoor setting.
Students participated in safety instruction covering responsible gun handling both on the range and in the field, helping build confidence and awareness before heading into activities. The day also included clay target shooting sessions, giving participants the opportunity to improve their shooting skills and experience the excitement of wingshooting in a controlled environment.
One of the highlights of the event was the field dog demonstrations, where students were able to watch skilled hunting dogs work in real hunting scenarios while learning about the important role dogs play in upland bird hunting. Events like these help connect the next generation to conservation, outdoor recreation, and the traditions that make upland hunting such a meaningful experience.
