Description

Ben Lee was an early ambassador of modern turkey hunting, celebrated for his expertise in turkey hunting and calling, which he often shared through seminars. The advent of home video revolutionized the hunting industry by bringing hunts into people's living rooms for on-demand viewing. As a result, many production companies began creating content to showcase their turkey calls and gear, turning the stars of these videos into celebrities. This trend began in 1985, and the 30-minute "How To Hunt Wild Turkey Featuring Ben Rodgers Lee" released in 1988 was the second title with Lee. It was produced by hunter and naturalist Bob McGuire, and was among the first few dozen videos of its kind to hit the market. The sleeves containing the videotape were marketing tools, often colorful and with images and titles that greatly appealed to their intended audience.
