Episode 145. Corruption and/or incompetence at National Wild Turkey Federation

The Hunt Quietly team conducted in-depth research into NWTF over the last several months.  This research uncovered widespread problems with their reporting.  NWTF grossly overreports the acres they conserve and the dollars they devote to their mission.   Evan Curtin, Nick Buckley, and Matt Rinella explain all of this and try to determine if these problems stem from corruption, incompetence, or both.  Hunt Quietly recommends against donating to organizations that do hunter recruitment, and NWTF does lots of that.  And in the case of NWTF, there are many additional reasons for Americans to spend their precious conservation dollars elsewhere.  A sincere thanks to David Fontenot, Chris Brewer, and Thomas Doyle for assisting  with research for this episode.
