It amazes me how so called competent people could even consider such a move. It has to be apparent to even the casual observer how successful the Pheasant Program has been. It is one of the only programs by the PGC where except for a handful of selfish grouse purist has been highly praised by our sportsman.
I hope such discussions that are meant to engage and ask for support, doesn't backfire on the PGC, resulting in lower license sales. They've worked much to hard to offer some of the best smallgame hunting in the East.
