Ever thought about going hunting in the winter? Will there be anything to gain from the snow? A summary of tips for harvesting pheasants in outdoor legal hunting grounds:

During the snow-covered winter, many experienced hunters shift their hunting goals from hunting large animals to birds with more opportunities. When the weather gets colder and the snow falls deeper, the hunter's chances of successfully hunting pheasants are higher.

If you are also a hunting enthusiast, you must seize and enjoy this winter. Of course, before that, it is necessary to understand the hunting strategies for hunting pheasants in the snow.

When the weather is nice in the fall, pheasants like to wander around looking for food, and at this time their whereabouts can be a little scattered and harder to hunt. But when the weather gets cooler and the clouds thicken, the pheasants start to take action, eating faster and eating as much as possible. Usually, before a cold wave comes, a large group of pheasants will gather somewhere, creating excellent hunting opportunities for hunters.

Like larger animals, pheasants have an instinct to stock up on food before bad weather arrives. Therefore, at this time, hunters should focus on foraging areas where high-protein food is distributed. Once pheasants congregate in a location with food, water, and suitable shelter, they often do not venture far before severe cold weather arrives.

When the snow falls, pheasants will hide in their shelters to conserve energy to the greatest extent possible. Unless they have to, they stay as still as possible and stay in the same place for days on end. It is quite difficult to hunt them under these conditions, and it would be much easier if you had a hunting dog. When the snow falls heavily, hounds can penetrate deep into the dense jungle and drive out the pheasants.

If the first strike fails, don't lose heart, keep an eye on the pheasant's flight path. After all, the weather is so cold, that storing energy is still the top priority of the pheasant. It may fly up to thirty or forty meters, and then dive back into the jungle, giving you a second chance to take action.

When a snowstorm is over, the pheasants are most concerned about finding food. In order to replenish energy, they will rush to places with abundant food as soon as possible and eat like crazy. Obviously, their defenses are also at a minimum at this time. For novices, this will be a very exciting moment: in that vast white sky, the brilliant feathers of pheasants are so conspicuous, all searches become simple, and hounds become dispensable.
