Utah’s Lynn Worwood Makes Turkey Hunting Memories

Some of the most memorable turkey hunts I've ever been have been the hunts where I’ve taken my children and grandchildren. There's just something extra special about introducing a family member to turkey hunting, and being there when they harvest their first gobbler.

Lady Turkey Hunters and a Blackpowder Turkey Hunter in Utah

My job with the NWTF here in Utah is to help promote turkey hunting with the youth, the women and all first-time turkey hunters, as well as our Wheelin' Sportsmen program. I promote Jake events. I've worked with the youth for the past 20 years as the Jake coordinator, but I’ve had a hard time getting women involved.

No Turkeys to Too Many Turkeys in Vermont

On the way to work a couple of years ago in Vermont, I kept seeing a longbeard out in a field with a bunch of hens. When turkey season finally arrived, I asked my boss for permission to get to work a little late, so I could hunt that longbeard. He agreed to let me come in late.
