How Restoring the Wild Turkey Spurred on a Game Call Innovation Boom

Description

YELP & GOBBLE, INC by Brent Rogers was privately published by the author in 2024. Beginning with a foreword by well-known outdoor writer Jim Casada, Rogers tells the story of how the restoration of the wild turkey ignited a game call industry focused on creating products for turkey hunters. Rogers, who holds a Biology degree from William Penn University and is well known for his extensive knowledge of the history of the wild turkey and its restoration, brings to life the stories of three call companies that would rise from that successful restoration. A restoration story that is considered one of the greatest conservation success stories in North America. From very humble beginnings to leaders in their fields, Knight & Hale, Primos, and Quaker Boy have shaped thousands of hunters through their products and style. Rogers tells each story with enthusiasm and detail that stays true to each company's path. Included with the book are additional stories and biographies of hunters and call makers who played integral roles in the development of today's calls. The credibility of the author's work is strengthened not just by his love and knowledge of the bird but also by his long list of published works, both in magazines and the three books he has authored and co-authored. Brent Rogers, who received the NWTF Tom Kelly Communicator of the Year award for 2026, has put together an amazing story that all turkey hunters will do well to read.
