WORTHINGTON, Minn. – The 2022 Minnesota Governor’s Pheasant Opener will be on the prairie lands in the southwest corner of the state.
The DNR announced that Worthington and Nobles County will host the annual pheasant hunting event on Oct. 14 and 15. The area has more than 6,600 acres of state-owned public land.
Nobles County committee chair Scott Rall says they look forward to “shining a spotlight on pheasant hunting, our hunting resources, and our diverse community.”
The COVID pandemic led to the cancellation of the Minnesota Governor’s Pheasant Opener the past two falls.
