Under the guidance of experienced mentors, new hunters were granted special access to the country’s first urban wildlife refuge. For more information visit HuntDeerPA.com.

Amazing program!
Most people don’t get the phrase “hunting is conservation” until they have been a part of it…
Cool to see the lightbulb moment.
Every state needs a hunting program like this to educate and promote what conservation and hunting really is. Good job thank you for sharing.
LOVE this!! This is the right way to pass the tradition on! Spread it to anyone willing to learn with an open mind. Love the lady seeing what real hunters are all about!
That’s what it’s about passing on the tradition!
Outstanding !
Thats awesome. I grew up next to John heinz and always fished it. Really wish i could have hunted it.
Great message! It's not all about killing, it never should be.
I participated in a Field to Fork in Georgia and it was fabulous.
I live in GA and looking for someone to mentor me through field to fork or other avenues/programs. I dont even know where to start. Do you know who can I reach out to? Thank you!
@@bojannovkovic8818 Start by filling out our new hunter survey that we use to pair new hunters with mentors - deerassociation.com/newhunter. You can also reach out to Hank Forester who heads our Field to Fork program at hank@deerassociation.com

Awesome program
Keep up the good work
This is so relatable to me in so many ways I could’ve never understood prior to my late start at hunting in 2019.
I spent my whole life up until 37 with a curiosity toward hunting, but never was ready to bridge the gap and try it until my then 8 year old son asked if he could try it.
The moment he shot his first deer on opening day of Missouri rifle season, would forever be the moment that felt as if my eyes were opened for the first time and I would never be the same. Truly one of the happiest moments I’ve ever felt. And the profound realizations and appreciations I’ve had, with and without my kids with me, with every minute spent in the deer woods, just keep building stronger each passing season. I’m forever grateful to have finally found hunting, but even moreso, to now try daily to let it be my avenue to help me leave this place better than I found it.
