Show notes
The first episode recorded at the 2022 NWTF Convention, happens to be the first for this week's very special host: Logan Cooke, a born-for-it turkey hunter from Mississippi and member of the Jacksonville Jaguars NFL Football Team.Aside from the special host, we have a VERY special guest in one of the most iconic pioneers in the history of spring turkey hunting - Mr. Ronnie "Cuz" Strickland. Along with Cuz, his two grandsons, Cranky and Matt hop on to tell us about their turkey hunting experiences, including the notorious "Devil Turkey," which gave both Cranky and Cuz fits one spring. In this episode: Cuz walks us through the first Primos "The Truth" hunt ever filmed. A look into the early days of Mossy Oak with Toxey Haas and Bob Dixon. Creating a cult-like culture and what makes turkey hunting so special. Cuz takes Col. Tom Kelly to hunt his first Rio years ago. Cranky's battle with a stubborn Eastern, The "Devil Turkey." What makes turkey hunting different than everything else for Matt. Our Open Season Countdown, brought to you by Open Season Properties: 21 Days In the market for buying or selling land?
