Upland Bird Hunting in Colorado

[hunterd05]

My 14 year old daughter is getting into bird hunting with me and we are looking for hunting clubs in Colorado to hunt pheasant, dove, or other species. We live on the western slope (Grand Junction) but are willing to travel to hunt. Just curious what is out there?

I don't know of any clubs, probably are some, but I do know that the Burlington Rotary Club hosts an annual Rooster Round up that anyone can attend. Not sure what it costs, but they do get ya on private land, maps included, that a guy might be able to find a few birds on.
Otherwise, a guy can get a map showing all the available walk in ground and do a little leg work and probably find a few birds that way. At the very least, you'd be able to go out and get some good exercise looking for birds.

Lots of clubs. Most of these are along the front range though, so not sure if they'll work for you.

Rocky Mountain Roosters
Kiowa Creek
Steel Fork Pheasants
Valhalla Hunt Club

Just to name a few.

Yeah, a fair amount of walk in property out on the eastern plains, I have no idea of how thise places turn out as in are they swamped with people or are there any birds there.

There are normally a number of walk in properties which are restricted to youth hunters. Those are frequently primo spots with light pressure resulting in lots of pheasants after others fields are walked. These allow adults to hunt with the youth hunters and you might find others that will hunt with you since you have access to these restricted locations.

Congratulations on spending quality time and hunting with your daughter!
