Is Your Smartphone Ruining Your Hunting Experience?

Tough Turkey Hunting in Minnesota

Turkey hunting has been tough in Minnesota, from the time I was 13 years old until I was 21. The first year I turkey hunted, I called a gobbler in for a friend of mine and he harvested that bird.

Wild Turkey Success Story

In the 1500s, the wild turkey population in the United States was approximately 10 million. As unregulated hunting pressure and habitat loss increased, the turkey population rapidly declined. Wild turkeys had once occupied 39 states and by 1920, they were down to 21 states. The lowest population estimate is 30,000.

Getting Back to Hunting

When I was 16 years old, I quit hunting. I really didn’t come back to hunting until I graduated from college, because there were so many things that pulled me away from hunting.
