EP. 286: The Pheasant Hunting Forecast, Hunting Tips, and a Game of Battleship

On The Wing Podcast

Host Bob St.Pierre is joined by Pheasants Forever Journal Editor Tom Carpenter, PF & QF Director of Communications Jared Wiklund, and Quail Forever Journal Editor Ryan Sparks to preview the 2024 pheasant hunting season. Each individual also offers their top four pheasant hunting tips during the inaugural game of Pheasant Hunting Battleship. Episode Highlights: • Tom Carpenter kicks off the conversation with an overview of Pheasants Forever’s 2024 Pheasant Hunting Forecast based upon biologist input from 22 different states. Wiklund follows up with the “word on the street” based upon anecdotal reports he’s heard in conversations with PF members, landowners, and partners across the country. • The group covers a wide array of pheasant hunting tips from using the wind and being stealthy quiet to the best days of the week and times of the day to chase roosters. • This also marks Purina Pro Plan’s inaugural episode as the presenting sponsor of On the Wing podcast.
