A maximum of 20 women will be accepted into this training. The program, run by women, will teach the basic skills of shooting a shotgun, safety and one-on-one shooting experience. Those enrolled in this course will also learn the basics of hunting game birds of Pennsylvania: grouse, pheasant, turkey, quail, woodcock, doves and crows, and ducks and geese. No experience is required to enroll.
