About

Pheasants Forever (PF) is dedicated to the conservation of pheasants, quail and other wildlife through habitat improvements, public awareness, education and land management policies and programs.

Our Model

At the heart of Pheasants Forever and Quail Forever is the unique grassroots system of fundraising and project development that allows members to see the direct result of their contributions. PF and QF empower county chapters with the responsibility to determine how 100% of their locally raised conservation funds will be spent - the only national conservation organization that operates through this truly grassroots structure. As a result, chapter volunteers are able to see the fruits of their efforts locally, while belonging to a larger national organization with a voice on federal and state conservation policy.

History

Our Work: Habitat Projects - The system of empowering local chapters and volunteers to make the best decisions for wildlife in their local area has resulted in the average annual completion of over 27,200 projects. Since its inception in 1982, Pheasants Forever's wildlife habitat projects have benefited more than 10 million acres across the continent. In that time, PF has participated in over 2,000 different land acquisitions totaling well over 100,000 acres. Those land acquisition projects have been completed in conjunction with local, state and federal natural resource agencies, and all of those projects are today open to public hunting.

Five-time Emmy winner, Ron Schara, of Ron Schara Enterprises, is the host and executive producer of Pheasants Forever Television. A PF life member and life-long pheasant hunter, Schara has spent over three decades as a champion of the outdoors through his various television and radio shows and work as an outdoor writer. With a story teller's angle and soft-spoken delivery, Schara is probably best known for his classic closing line, "Introduce a kid to the great outdoors." Joining Schara in hosting the show is his trusty black Lab, Raven. The show also includes helpful tips for your hunting dog and improving your shotgun skills.
