Thomas’s First Turkey Hunt | Guided by Turkey Tracks

This is more than a hunt—it’s a story of strength, faith, and the wild.

Join us in Knox, Indiana, at the Turkey Tracks Annual Banquet, where the community gathers to support youth and disabled hunters across the country. In this episode, we follow Thomas, a determined young man living with muscular dystrophy, as he embarks on the hunt of a lifetime.

Guided by Harry Rust, a 16-year veteran guide, retiree, and longtime Turkey Tracks volunteer from Knox, Thomas experiences wild turkey hunting at its finest. Seven jakes and a flock of fired-up hens come in hot—yelping, fighting purring, and challenging every intruder that dares enter their domain.

You’ll also hear a heartfelt testimony from Doug Carroll, sharing how he’s witnessed Christ move through these hunts. And meet Dave Hedinger, vice president of Turkey Tracks and the man behind organizing this powerful annual banquet and silent auction.

This hunt is filled with action, emotion, and purpose—proof that the outdoors has the power to heal, connect, and inspire. #TurkeyTracks #YouthHunting #DisabilityHunt #FirstTurkey #KnoxIndiana #MuscularDystrophy #VeteranGuide #TurkeyHunting #WildTurkey #FightingPurr #JakeAttack #FaithInTheField #HuntingWithPurpose #TurkeySeason2025 #BanquetHunt #ThomasTheHunter
