ShopRejoining the Fraternal Order of the Hunting Beard
Like it or not, cold weather is coming and you need to plan ahead to have a solid hunting beard.
Did you feel the weather change on Sunday where you live?
I spent all Sunday in Minnesota with the attendees of Game Fair, a 6-day festival of hunters and their bird dogs. During my nine hour shift in the Pheasants Forever booth recruiting new members, I became chilly for the first time in four months.
I’ve always marveled at the natural order of waterfowl migrating, bluegills dusting out spawning beds and a bird dog’s uncanny knowledge of opening day. The same inherent truth exists amongst hunters come this time of year. That’s right; it’s time to re-grow the fall hunting beard.
I have thrown down my Norelco. Henceforth, I vow to rejoin my hunting brethren in the fraternal order of the hunting beard.
Will you send your razor to hibernation and join me?

Looks like you just got done eating a snowball. Count me in.
We’ve had a warm moist summer here in Minnesnowta this year. But late last Saturday night I was driving truck and actually rolled the windows up and (un-believable!) put the heater on. I think it was the first cold front we’ve had all summer that lived up to it’s name. I always put a “thank you” out to those Canadians for sending us that cool fresh air in the summer (winter is another matter). There’s still potentially a lot of summer weather left (even though I see the days gradually getting shorter) so I’m not going to quit pruning the wiskers quite yet. That’s a good winter beard photo you posted, any way for readers to submit some beard shots? I’ve got a couple good ones.
Dave,
Thanks for the comment. You can definitely send us your good hunting beard shots. Send them to press@pheasantsforever.org.
Thanks!
This is something I look forward to every year, as do my kids (young kids), to see what dad has grown when he comes back from hunting. The wife, not so much!
