## Resource

Turkey hunting has a way of pulling people in deeper than they ever expected. This week we’re joined by Paul Campbell to talk about how that obsession starts, the strange beauty of the wild turkey, and why the bird carries so much history and meaning for hunters who take the time to understand it. We get into youth hunts, early season stories, the heritage behind turkey hunting culture, and Paul’s work preserving some of that history for the next generation.
