Did Pheasants Forever pursue a merger with Quail Unlimited and why did that merger not occur?
When we made the decision to build on our success with pheasants by helping improve quail habitat, it was natural for us to first approach Quail Unlimited about joining forces. After a few discussions, both groups determined that it would be difficult to merge the two organizations based on the different operating models. That said, quail can use all the help they can get and we felt that it was best to continue to pursue our own efforts using the successful Pheasants Forever chapter empowerment and habitat improvement model.
