1 9 7 3 - 2 0 1 3For the last 40 years, the NWTF has proven it’s more than wild turkey restoration

or another pro-hunting cause. It’s a lifestyle for thousands of our volunteers. They share a love for wildlife, hunting and a life lived outdoors. Even more so, they want to see their passions live on in future generations.

Every year, NWTF members and volunteers flock to banquet halls and conventioncenters to raise money on behalf of their common goals — to conserve wildlife andprotect our hunting heritage. And the products in this book help foot the bill to carry out this crucial mission.

Your support of the NWTF will help make history, one that’s 40 years in the making,and primed to succeed several more decades. Be a part of this proven conservation success story.
