NWTF members?
Areany of you members of the National Wild Turkey Federation? They
are having a banquet in my town this coming weekend and I am
thinking about joining the NWTF and going to the banquet. I have heard
good things about the NWTF and just wanted to know if anyone thought
differently of them before I join.

RE: NWTF members?
I was a member for a long time.they do some good work.they are just like any of the other orginations, Money,Money.ofsome lots of it is spent on good things.
I am no longer a member for one reason; (Kinda hardheaded on my part I guess),a matter of princepable I guess.[&:]
I took a real nice Osceola a few years back.it was a truly nice bird.he weighted 21 lbs. 8 oz. 10 3/4" beard 1 1/8" spurs.Thats really good for an Osceola bird.he was witneesed by a Fla. FWC officer.
my problem was when I tried to get it resigerted and in the NWTF book, they said the person with me on the hunt was not a member so I could not enter it in there book.[:'(]
I felt that if my word and my witness's word , just because he was not a member was not good enough,then they don't need me or my money.it was sorta like they said because he was not a member he was lying.just my thinking but does a membership fee make him tell it any different?[:@] [:@] [:@].
thats just the way I feel about the NWTF. enjoy and good hunting.

RE: NWTF members?
I'm a member.It's NWTFchapters like mine and other local chapters that have helped in getting turkeys relocated to the north cenral parts of Mn. where 10-12 years ago we didn't have any.Now we have huntable populations.
