Saint Paul, Minn. – July 18, 2006 - The Outdoor Life Network (OLN) recently slotted the second season of Pheasants Forever Television to air on Fridays and Sundays at 11:30AM CDT / 12:30 PM EDT.  The season’s first episode will air on Friday, July 28^th and Sunday, July 30^th.  There will be 13 original shows and 52 total airings with repeats. 

"We received excellent feedback from Pheasants Forever members and bird hunters everywhere about the first season of Pheasants Forever Television," reported PF President and CEO Howard Vincent.  "Viewers can expect even more exciting bird hunting, eye-opening conservation stories, and thought-provoking human interest features during season two.  Our cameras have traveled across the pheasant range from California to Canada and Michigan to South Dakota to bring you the best of the king of game birds."

Pheasants Forever Television is produced by Ron Schara Enterprises.  Schara serves as the show's host.  "Once again OLN viewers will enjoy a television program that examines the American hunter's long fascination with ring-neck pheasants and the efforts of Pheasants Forever members who work tirelessly to ensure a future for pheasant hunting," explained Schara, who is also a five-time Emmy winner and a PF life member.

The season's first episode will kick off with a story about southern Alberta's Dave Bissett.  Bissett, a member of Pheasants Forever Calgary, has opened 1,000 acres of his private land to the general public for bird hunting in an area that is nearly void of public hunting opportunities.  PF TV cameras also catch up with Lincoln, Nebraska artist Cliff Hollestelle as he creates individual pheasant feathers out of wood.  The show's season opener closes with a trip to North Dakota where a group of 41 grandchildren save their great-grandma's farm house as a pheasant hunting headquarters.
