Father's Day for the Pheasant Hunter

In case you don't have it marked down on your calendar already, Sunday, June 19^th is Father's Day. For most of us, it was dad who brought us into the pheasant hunting fold. What better way to honor pops than with a new pheasant oriented gift. Here are a few ideas: Special Pheasants Forever Membership Package ($35.00): Through this special offer (deadline is June 10^th), you can purchase a year's membership to Pheasants Forever for your dad. That membership will be accompanied by a year's subscription to the Pheasants Forever Journal; including the new 2011 Pheasant Hunting Preview issue, a PF vehicle decal and a Pheasants Forever Running Rooster T-Shirt. NOTE: if your dad already has a current PF membership, this offer simply adds a full year on to his current membership's expiration date. Browning Polo Shirt ($42.95): You know he'd rather be bird hunting than golfing, but what's a guy to do in July? This 100% polyester polo is the perfect pheasant hunter's golf shirt. Gamehide SST Hunting Shirt ($29.95): We're closing out this shirt and it's marked down 17%. That's a steal for this high quality and comfortable shooting shirt that will become a part of your dad's autumn wardrobe for the next decade.

Pheasants Forever Pewter Belt Buckle ($14.95): Does your dad wear cowboy boots all summer long? Then he probably needs a PF belt buckle to match those kicks. Hoppe's Shotgun Boresnake ($16.99): In my humble opinion, the boresnake is the greatest gun cleaning invention ever made. Your dad will be able to keep his treasured scattergun in tip top shape in less than 60 seconds with the boresnake. Video Glasses ($149.95): Has your dad ever tried to explain the amazing shot he made on the other side of the hill? Now he can! I was pretty skeptical about these glasses when I first got a look at them. However, as you can see by the quality of this video, they produce pretty darn good footage. Game Cleaning Table ($89.99): While Gander Mountain markets this as a fish cleaning table, it easily doubles as a bird cleaning station. Save your dad's aching back and sore knees while keeping all the dead game out of your mom's kitchen. Yeah, you should probably buy one for yourself too! A Sand County Almanac Illustrated Edition ($29.95): Most consider Aldo Leopold to be the father of modern wildlife management. This is his signature work and the foundation for Pheasants Forever's habitat mission. Lucky Hunting Hat ($16.95): Does your dad lament missed shots around the Thanksgiving dinner table? Give the guy a hand with this bit of PF gear "guaranteed" to turn his shooting luck around! Pheasants Forever Beer Mugs ($22.95): This set of 4 mugs is a must have for any pheasant hunter's bar or rec room. Just in time for holding cold beverages during the hot summer months. Note: all orders through the Pheasants Forever MarketPlace need to be made by end of business on Friday, June 10^th to guarantee delivery by Father's Day on Sunday, June 19^th.
