The Massachusetts Becoming an Outdoorswoman program invites adult women to sign up for a day of shooting sports on May 17th at the Harvard Sportsmens Club in central Massachusetts.

If your interest is in target shooting or simply in qualifying for a Federal Identification Card, required for firearms ownership, this workshop provides what you need. If you just wonder why people are passionate about the shooting sports, check it out. The workshop is designed for women novices ages 18 and up. Participants will be introduced to rifle, shotgun, handgun and bow & arrow in a safe, relaxed and non-competitive atmosphere where they will learn the basics from expert instructors. All materials, equipment and lunch will be provided. Registration materials are now posted in the Education area of MassWildlife's website.

Pennsylvania Whitetail Deer & Black Bear
The whitetail deer was a 173 lb 8 pointer I harvested on public land in Pike County, Pennsylvania with archery equipment. The black bear was 150 lbs, and harvested on public land in Pike County, Pennsylvania with a 12 gauge 870 Remington using 2 3/4 inch Remington Premier Copper Solid Sabot Slugs. This was the second Pennsylvania black bear I have taken in 10 years in the Commonwealth.
