Summary

Bringing back some episodes from the "Turkey OG Series," Hosted on DeerCast from several years back. We figured it would be a great way to catch up new listeners and get everyone HYPED for turkey season. The second installment of the Turkey OG Series! Rob Keck joins Mark and Curt this week. Rob was the CEO of the NWTF for 27 years, raised almost three-quarters of a billion dollars for conservation, retired after 12 years as director of conservation for Bass Pro Shops, and his resume goes on and on! Rob is the first hunter to take a turkey in every state with a hunting season, and he talks about the hard work that went into establishing the wild turkey population, the current state of the turkey, and what we can look forward to in the future of these amazing animals! We hope you enjoy this episode and take some notes! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
