BROKEN BOW--Each November, the Nebraska One Box Pheasant Hunt in Broken Bow, Nebraska, hosts hunters from all over the country for three days of shooting competitions, hunting activities, award banquets, and social events. Sunrise to sunset, select hunters search the sky for majestic pheasants to take flight. Equipped with ONE BOX of shells, only ONE five-member team can share the glory of bagging the most birds.
The 57th One Box Pheasant Hunt featured seven new teams and 37 past shooters. Many competitors traveled from out of state for this adventure of a lifetime and also participated in the Lynn Berggren Memorial Hunt hosted by volunteers early Thursday morning.
Fundraisers, award banquets, and social events were held at the Cobblestone Hotel and One Box Convention Center in Broken Bow, NE. Area community members also hosted each new team, throwing cocktail parties to welcome the many sportsmen to Custer County. Sporting clays and trap shooting competitions were also on the schedule at the One Box Gun Club located southwest of Broken Bow. Local volunteers, generous sponsors, and community supporters make this annual event a success.
