Summary

It’s Brent’s favorite time of year and the turkey stories are rolling in. He’s gonna share a couple from some listeners that are great examples of mentorship. One from a father and one about a father figure. The last one is about the man who taught Brent how to hunt turkeys. His lessons however, went far beyond the woods. 

Thank you to our sponsors, Case Knives and Stor-Mor.
