EP. 336: Inside PF & QF: How Membership Fuels Habitat, Access, and Bird Hunting

Want more wild birds, better access, and stronger habitat? It all starts with joining the upland community.

In the heart of bird hunting season, the On the Wing Podcast takes a closer look at what really keeps the upland tradition alive—its members. Host Bob St. Pierre sits down with Pheasants Forever and Quail Forever’s membership team—Brian Essling, Emy Marier, and Scotty Moehlmann—for a candid conversation on how joining the organization directly supports wildlife habitat, public access, and the next generation of hunters and bird dogs.

From prairie hunts for sharp-tailed grouse in North Dakota to chasing late-season roosters through Minnesota cattails, this episode blends personal hunting stories with real insight into how membership dollars hit the ground. You’ll hear how members like Scotty found mentorship through local chapters, how Emy’s retrievers keep her connected to the field, and why Brian believes that supporting conservation is inseparable from chasing wild birds.

Whether you’re a lifelong upland hunter or an “adult-onset” bird hunting convert, this discussion illustrates how membership translates into acres of restored grassland, healthier wild bird populations, and better days afield for all of us.
