Award-Winning Pheasants Forever Television Begins Fifth Season this
July on Outdoor Channel
Three days and four different times to catch the best bird hunting
and conservation show on the air!
Saint Paul, Minn. — June 29, 2009 — The premiere upland bird
hunting and conservation show on television, Pheasants Forever
Television
, is back for its fifth season beginning Thursday, July 2nd only on
Outdoor Channel
. The half-hour show, hosted by popular outdoor personality Ron
Schara, is slotted to air on Thursdays at 1AM CDT / 2AM EDT, Fridays
at 7:30AM CDT / 8:30AM EDT and on Saturdays at 2AM CDT / 3AM EDT and
again at 3:30PM CDT / 4:30PM EDT. 
Pheasants Forever Television, produced by Ron Schara Productions
, returns fresh off being honored as the best bird hunting show at
Outdoor Channel’s 9th Annual Golden Moose Awards. Season five does not
disappoint, with more of the hunting and conservation stories that
viewers have grown to love. Emmy-Award winning Ron Schara teams up
with his beloved black Lab Raven to profile the national Pheasants
Forever
organization, its volunteer members, its habitat projects and of
course, plenty of hunting adventures.
“We like to say the ring-necked pheasant is the star of the show, but
we also learn that the ringneck plays a valuable role in the lives of
many bird hunters,” Schara said, “We try to capture that relationship
as well as the role of Pheasants Forever in securing the future of
conservation.”
In the first episode of this season’s Pheasants Forever Television,
the show ventures to Casselton, North Dakota to hunt with a very
special dog. Keith Kemmer’s German Wirehaired Pointer, Tess, may not
look like she’s ready to take to the field, but the story of Tess is
one you won’t want to judge by its cover. The episode also takes a
look at a day in the life at Pheasants Forever’s national
headquarters, and wraps up with a prescribed burn crew from Bridger
Fire.
Pheasants Forever Television’s informative tip segments are also back
for season five, including Shotgun Savvy with shooting pro Ed Prechel,
Habitat Habit brought to you by Carlson’s Choke Tubes and Gun Dog
Savvy sponsored by Purina. Find more information about Pheasants
