In the Field: October 2007
PF in National Geographic Magazine
Read about Pheasants Forever, hunters and conservation in November issue
Just in time for hunting season, the November issue of National Geographic magazine contains the feature "Hunters: Conserving the Land." In the story, you'll be able to see and read about Pheasants Forever's (PF) conservation efforts.
Written by Robert M. Poole with stunning photography from William Albert Allard, the story focuses on hunters as strong supporters of the land and wildlife conservation. It also examines the declining number of hunters in the U.S. and poses the question: Will a new generation take the field?
"We're excited to see Pheasants Forever as a part of this comprehensive story on hunting and conservation," said Bob St.Pierre, PF Director of Marketing & Public Relations, "It's important that these issues continue to garner mainstream attention, and we're hoping some of the 5 million monthly readers of National Geographic will be motivated to join our conservation efforts."
The story appears on pages 112 through 139. In fact, the story opens with a two-page photo spread of a PF project - an 800-acre reserve along Coffee Creek, Montana. Pages 118 & 119 of the story also contain a photo spread of PF members on a pheasant hunt in Eureka, South Dakota.
