Pheasants Forever and Quail Forever Celebrate Longstanding Partnership with onX Hunt

Saint Paul, Minn. – September 14, 2026 – Pheasants Forever and Quail Forever are proud to announce onX Hunt, the nation’s leading outdoor digital navigation platform for hunters, as a renewing national sponsor. The partnership reaffirms a shared commitment to wildlife habitat conservation, public access, and the future of upland hunting in America.

“We implore every member and upland hunter throughout America to utilize an onX Hunt subscription to access quality pheasant, quail, and prairie grouse habitat,” said Chris Kalis, Pheasants Forever and Quail Forever vice president of corporate partnerships. “When you do, you’re investing in personal hunting success while fueling public access initiatives throughout the upland bird range. We’re thankful for a strong and longstanding partnership with our friends at onX Hunt.”

Since 2020, onX has supported Pheasants Forever and Quail Forever’s efforts to expand public hunting access and conserve wildlife habitat through its Adventure Forever Grants Program. Early contributions supported the organization’s Build a Wildlife Area initiative, while funding since 2023 has helped advance its Public Access to Habitat (PATH) program, the organization’s primary mechanism for increasing public hunting access on private lands. Successful PATH programs in South Dakota and Nebraska have secured access to more than 120,000 acres of upland bird habitat, paving the way for expansion into North Dakota, Oklahoma, and Michigan.

“We’re immensely proud to continue our partnership with Pheasants Forever and Quail Forever as a national sponsor. At onX Hunt, we believe deeply in investing in the lands, habitat, and access that our customers value so deeply,” said Ben Brettingen, onX Hunt marketing manager. “Few organizations can leverage that support as effectively as Pheasants Forever and Quail Forever, turning investment into meaningful, lasting impacts for wildlife, hunters, and the places we love to recreate.”

Millions of hunters trust onX Hunt to help them be more successful in the field. The GPS mapping application allows users to route, plan, and navigate with private and public land boundaries, 3D satellite and topographic basemaps, offline maps, and hunt-specific layers such as the PF & QF access layer, historic wildlife data, game management units, and much more.

In addition to marketing in the Pheasants Forever Journal of Upland Conservation, Quail Forever Journal and the organization’s online channels, onX Hunt products will be featured at Pheasants Forever and Quail Forever banquets throughout the nation. Likewise, onX is sponsoring a portion of On the Wing Podcast and will be recognized as a diamond sponsor of National Pheasant Fest & Quail Classic 2027 in Omaha, Nebraska, on March 5-7.
