Gear Recommendations:
As the seasons change, so does the recommended field gear for upland hunting at Milford Hills. In the early part of the season, enjoy warmer temperatures, and come prepared with lighter field gear. As we move into the winter months, be sure to come equipped with leather boots and heavier weight apparel. Rubber boots are helpful for the spring as the fields begin to thaw and the snow melts.
Most hunters elect to carry a 12-gauge over/under in the field. We welcome all 12, 20 or sub-gauge shotguns in the field. Five shot, lead ammunition is the preferred ammunition. Our Trading Post Pro Shop carries our preferred ammunition, that way you don’t have to pack it for your trip.
What to bring (additional):
Sunscreen, sunglasses/eye protection, insect repellent, camera.
Season:
Hunting available from mid-September - March.
Species:
- Ringneck Pheasant
