Hunting And Health Every year, millions of Americans make New Year’s resolutions to enjoy a healthier lifestyle. Fortunately for all of them, nature's original family gym and health-food store—the prime hunting grounds of America's great outdoors—are open for business. After all, an hour spent pheasant hunting not only burns 408 calories, but it can also provide a tasty low fat, low cholesterol meal. Through its “Just for the Health of It” campaign, NSSF’s STEP OUTSIDE® program is encouraging outdoor enthusiasts to introduce newcomers to hunting at one of America’s many bird hunting preserves—which can be found at www.wingshootingusa.org. The concept was featured last week in the Green Bay Press-Gazette. The program is also holding a wild game and fish recipe contest through March.
