Last year I was a mentor in a new program in Iowa to help get adults who have not hunted involved in hunting. It is a part of the NWTF program called Save the Habitat, Save the Hunt.

The program lasts all year and covers many topics and includes trap shooting, archery, survival skills, a turkey hunt, a pheasant hunt, and a waterfowl hunt. It was great to see the new hunters progress last year. If people are not introduced to hunting as a youth, it is very unlikely they will start hunting. This program is providing an avenue for adults who have not hunted to give it a try.
The program is in its 2nd year now and we are gearing up for the turkey hunt. Here is the ask.....
We are short a couple places to bring these new hunters for the turkey hunt. Ideally, we would like it to be in Polk county - or very close. The hunt is just 1 day and will be held on May 6th. If you have a place you would allow a 1 day turkey hunt during 4th season to a new hunter, please let me know by responding to this thread or a PM. The mentee would be hunting their first turkey hunt and a mentor would be along to help guide them.
Thanks for considering.
