On the Wing is your destination for conversations about upland bird hunting, wildlife habitat, public lands, bird dogs, wild game cooking and epic adventures in search of pheasants, quail and grouse. These are the stories of Pheasants Forever & Quail Forever’s 145,000 members, volunteers, team of professional wildlife biologists and experts in the field. Our shows are recorded in person and often on the road from the end of tailgates, backs of horse trailers and after a day in the field chasing birds.","last_synced_at":"2026-07-08T22:20:37.046162+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/on-the-wing-podcast-1052918"},"episode":{"title":"EP. 351: Pheasant Fest & Quail Classic 2026 Preview","slug":"ep-351-pheasant-fest-quail-classic-2026-preview","published_at":"2026-02-16T13:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/on-the-wing-podcast-1052918/ep-351-pheasant-fest-quail-classic-2026-preview","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/on-the-wing-podcast-1052918","url":"https://pheasantsforever.org/default.aspx","audio_url":"https://episodes.captivate.fm/episode/7455f32b-e91e-4a9a-b173-b377148f9e63.mp3","summary":"National Pheasant Fest & Quail Classic returns to the Minneapolis Convention Center with a packed weekend of upland celebrations. Turnpike Troubadours headline the Concert for Conservation, with Dave Simonett of Trampled by Turtles opening the show on Thursday night. For bird hunters, hearing “The Bird Hunters” played live before a weekend dedicated to upland hunting, bird dogs, and grassland conservation is about as good as it gets. The show floor opens on Friday following the annual Bird Dog Parade, where more than 100 hunting dogs representing almost four dozen breeds will highlight the event’s kickoff. From flushers to retrievers to pointers, it is a celebration of the dogs that define bird hunting. More than 350 exhibitors will fill the hall with shotguns, upland hunting vests, technical hunting apparel, dog training gear, wildlife habitat seed, conservation equipment, and public lands resources. New upland gear releases, emerging upland brands, and hands-on habitat education share space with veteran outfitters and bird dog breeders. There will also be seminars across multiple stages covering habitat management, grassland restoration, public land access, bird dog training, and practical hunting tactics. Saturday features the Life Member Breakfast with NFL Hall of Famer Jared Allen, as well as the evening’s National Banquet with longtime outdoor columnist and PF founder Dennis Anderson. Anderson will share his personal story behind one of conservation’s most influential grassroots movements. This is more than a trade show. It is a reunion of bird hunters, wildlife habitat conservationists, and landowners committed to protecting and growing upland habitat across America.
