View Mark and Neelas full story from KGW news 8 from our volunteer day with ODF&W BOW Hunt (Becoming an Outdoos Woman)
Feb 25, 2012 - ODF&W Womans BOW hunt.
Fall has arrived and for many people that signals the start of Oregon's fall hunting seasons. This week, (10-2-09) Grant McOmie discovers that women who have always wanted to try their hands at hunting have a new way to learn about one of Oregon's premier recreational pursuits.
He recently traveled to the EE Wilson Wildlife Area near Corvallis, Oregon to learn that there's a new class in session and he says, "Fellas, this one is for women only!". At EE Wilson , newcomer Kelly Ruboin is on her toes because the pheasant can launch themselves skyward in a heartbeat.Kelly joined accomplished hunter Mark Steele, and his hunting dog, "Neela," for an afternoon in the field. Mark is a volunteer guide who gave his hunting services over for a special day designed for women only. In fact, two-dozen women gathered on the wildlife area to learn what upland bird hunting's all about.Ruboin, like many of the other women, has never done anything like this before. But that's okay because she's taking a class to learn how it's done. The EE Wilson Wildlife Area Pheasant Hunt is part of a unique Outdoor Skills program sponsored by the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife and it is called "Becoming An Outdoors Woman."
"I'd never done it before and it's just fascinating. I'd love to learn more about it because I've family members who hunt. If I could learn, maybe I could go with them." says Ruboin
.
Back out in the hunting area, Ruboin was on high alert and ready for her shot at a pheasant. She walked the field with "Neela" out front and on point. Suddenly, two birds erupted from the grass, Ruboin tracked one of the birds as it flew to her left and away - she fired, but it was a clean miss!Yet, she turned and smiled - full of enthusiasm: "That was great!, she shouted. "This has been so educational even though I didn't get a pheasant. At least I got a shot off. It's so much fun! I'll be back too."
