The Colonel & The Fox • A Mossy Oak Documentary

•
1h 20m
One of the most special projects in Mossy Oak's history, this film chronicles the story of turkey hunting history and the revival of the wild turkey told through the lives of two woodsmen who have become icons of turkey hunting, conservation, and cherished outdoor family traditions.
In the 1940s, wild turkeys and the proud traditions of those who hunt them were on the brink of extinction. In what would become known as America's greatest conservation success story, the Greatest Generation returned home from war and decided to do something about it.
This film celebrates the life and legacy of these men and the rest of turkey hunting's greatest generation. When the last of them are gone, it's up to us as gamekeepers, turkey hunters, and stewards of hunting culture to not only carry on their legacy, but pass these traditions along. We're grateful to everyone who shares in this story and takes the time to watch. We hope you're inspired to spend more time in the woods and to love the land and wildlife that call it home, and to leave it all better than you found it.
