Summary
As promised, Brent's back with the second half of his trip to Mississippi. A hunt that has as many ups and downs as a carousel at the county fair. He's also telling a turkey story from years back in Missouri where equines and bovines played a pivotal part.
Thank you to our sponsors, Case Knives and Stor-Mor.
