bitcoin Registration will open the first week of January for the 2015 Becoming an Outdoors-Woman (BOW) Winter Workshop, a one-day program where women can learn outdoor skills to enjoy during the winter months. The workshop will be held on Saturday, February 14, 2015, at the New Hampshire Fish and Game Department’s Owl Brook Hunter Education Center in Holderness, N.H.  A fee of $55 covers the workshop, lunch and most equipment use.  New this year, a discounted registration fee of $25 applies to participants age 18-25. You must be at least 18 years old to take part in BOW programs.

A brochure describing the workshop is currently available at nhbow.com. Registration forms for the winter workshop will be posted on January 2, 2015.  If you are interested in attending, please visit the N.H. BOW program’s website at nhbow.com on January 2, or soon after, and print out the registration form and mail it in right away.

Winter BOW participants choose a single outdoor activity to explore during the daylong workshop.  Five different options are offered:  Women can learn how to ice-fish, explore winter outdoor survival skills, track wildlife on snowshoes, try snowmobiling (beginners only) or experience the popular ’Shoe and Shoot class (woodland target shooting on snowshoes).

New Hampshire BOW programs are co-sponsored by the New Hampshire Fish and Game Department and the New Hampshire Wildlife Federation (nhwf.org), a nonprofit group that advocates for the promotion and protection of hunting, fishing and trapping, as well as the conservation of fish and wildlife habitat.

Weekly fishing tip


Catch Bluegills, Don't Feed Them

Every experienced angler knows that bluegills are bait thieves, especially when they're not what you're fishing for. If you're fishing for bluegills and you're using worms then you will need to present the bait right on the hook to prevent theft. You don't want to just thread the worm onto the hook, this will prevent the worm's ability to move about and attract bluegills. Instead place the worm on the hook in a pleated manner, this will allow the worm to attract bluegills and provide easy access to the hook.

Weekly Hunting Tip

BEWARE OF THE 'INSTANT DROP'

An animal that drops at the shot is more likely to run off than one that doesn't go down but runs some distance and then falls. The animal that falls immediately might do so from shock, then recover and run. When an animal drops instantly, stay put and be prepared for a quick follow-up shot


kids weekly hunting tip

Involve the young hunter in planning and preparation

It's human nature to try and "do it all" for the young hunter, and just let them experience the fun of the hunt itself. But it's important to involve them in the hunt's preparations - making lists, going on shopping trips, helping make catalog orders, packing, scouting, opening camp and other activities that are part of the adventure.
