This morning we’ll enjoy a slower start with time to make coffee, grab breakfast, and prepare for the day. By 9:00 a.m. we’ll meet our guides at the game farm for a full upland bird hunt. We’ll be after ring-necked pheasants and chukar, with pointing dogs to help locate birds and maximize our time in the field. After the hunt, our guides will walk us through the process of cleaning our birds so you can go home confident in your skills—and with your harvest ready to cook! (Don’t forget to bring bags or a cooler.)

Once we’ve wrapped up at the preserve, we’ll head back to Decorah to freshen up and enjoy the afternoon exploring this charming town. With cozy shops, local restaurants, and a great selection of wineries and breweries, there will be plenty of opportunities to relax and celebrate the day together.

After one last morning together, we’ll pack up and check out of our Airbnb. Depending on timing, you may want to grab breakfast or coffee in town before beginning the journey home. While this is a departure day, you’ll leave with new skills, confidence, and friendships to carry forward.

✨ Optional Add-On Experience ✨
