Youth Turkey Hunt
with
Bell Wildlife Specialties
April
4-6, Harveyville, KS.
For
the 6th year in a row, Dan Bell and the great folks with Bell Wildlife
Specialties hosted young hunters with the Pass It On - Outdoor Mentors
program for a youth turkey hunt. We had 13 kids, many on their first
turkey hunt, including one young lady who participated in her first
hunt ever!
We
took 5 nice toms, all with 9-10" beards, and everyone saw lots
of birds, even if they didn't get the opportunity to shoot. But
that's all part of the hunting experience!

Sam
Haag from the Trails-n-Traditions TV show joined us again this year
and got some great footage of some of the kids getting their turkey.
The show will air later this fall. Sam's show is on the Sportsmans
Channel and local cable in Pennsylvania.
In
addition to joining us for the hunt, Sam and his crew brought a
PA Bear roast with them. On Saturday evening, Dan prepared a great
meal for the crew featuring bear roast, buffalo roast and fried
wild turkey. You knew it was good by looking at the serving table
and seeing nothing left on the serving platters!
This
hunt has become a tradition with the Pass It On - Outdoor Mentors
program, thanks to the generosity of Dan Bell, his family, and the
great staff at Bell Wildlife Specialties. They provide meals and
lodging and guides for all of the hunters, donating the entire weekend.
The hunting is strictly first-class all the way.
