This is the story of a child experiencing their very first turkey hunt. It is a celebration of the outdoor lifestyle and an encouragement to immerse children in the outdoor experience. “From high up in the treetops, we hear the turkeys stir. Sounds of wings and snaps of branches, a hen lightly yelps and purrs.” Filled with the excitement, joy and respect a first hunt often brings, Chasing Turkeys will leave you ready to take to the field to make some memories of your own.
This book was written for those raised to chase the wild.
Written by fellow outdoorswoman Allison Hunter Voges of Indiana!
Illustrated by Rebecca Mullins of Arizona, an artist and freelance illustrator specializing in children’s books.

Taking Aim
Daring to be Different, Happier, and Healthier in the Great Outdoors
By Eva Shockey
With A.J. Gregory
USED BOOK: Very Good – Clean inside pages with no appearance of use. Just minimal wear and bending on covers. Includes 8 pages of color photos as well. Photos are of the actual book you’ll receive.
An acclaimed bow hunter who defies the stereotype that hunting is a man’s game, Eva Shockey is at the forefront of a new wave of women and girls who are passionate about outdoor sports.
Eva Shockey grew up expecting to be a dancer like her glamorous mother. But something about spending family vacations RV-ing across North America and going on hunts with her dad sparked in her an enduring passion for a different way of life.
In Taking Aim, Eva tells a very personal story of choosing the less-traveled path to a rewarding life in outdoor pursuits like hunting and fishing. For her, as her millions of fans can attest, that has meant hunting as a way of harvesting food, caring deeply about conservation, sustainability and healthy eating, and getting closer to God in nature.
In this riveting memoir for the adventurer in all of us, Eva takes readers along as she hunts caribou on the rugged Aleutian Islands, tracks a 1,500-pound bull moose across the unforgiving Yukon, and meets many other challenges of a life in the wild.
Along the way we learn that hunting is about so much more than pulling a trigger. “My story is about discovering your dream,” writes Eva. “It’s about following your passion, mastering your skills, taking aim no matter who thinks you’re crazy…and then letting the arrow fly. If you’ve done all you can, I can tell you that you’re almost certain to hit your mark.”
Whether you’re a lifelong hunter or a city dweller who has never set foot in the wilderness, Eva’s story delivers an empowering message about rejecting stereotypes and expectations, believing in yourself, and finding the courage to pursue what you care about most.

ADVENTURESS Logo Custom Turkey Pot Call – Purpleheart & Slate
By Anthony Meyers Custom Turkey Calls – Multiple-Time Wisconsin, Minnesota and Iowa Turkey Calling Champion
Created with the woman hunter in mind, this turkey pot call features beautiful purpleheart wood, with it’s natural, impressive purple hue, known for its strength and durability. Engraved into the full wood side of this call is the ADVENTURESS circle logo with stars.
For ease of calling and quality sound, the other side features a Pennsylvania gray slate calling surface. Gray slate has an awesome throaty sound, and is the king of soft talk for turkey calling. This also includes an imprint of the ADVENTURESS name logo.
The striker included with this call also features natural purpleheart wood. This is the go-to striker for many, and plays well on every surface, so you can use it on other calls too.
This call comes protected in a fitted plastic case, and includes a guide from Anthony Meyers Custom Turkey Calls for conditioning, care and calling tips.
THESE MAKE A BEAUTIFUL GIFT FOR TURKEY HUNTERS OR UPCOMING HUNTERS!

Editor’s Note: Custom calls have such an incredible uniqueness and craftsmanship, it’s inspiring each time you use them for your very own hunts. I’m truly wowed by special individuals with the combination of such a love for hunting, so motivated and talented to be able to create and design their own calls. I’m grateful to have met one of them – Anthony Meyers – at a hunting show last year, and since then, partnering with him for these beautiful custom turkey calls JUST FOR YOU!
Anthony is a multi-state turkey calling champion with his calls. I got the chance to personally use some of his calls last year, enjoying the amazing details and sound quality. This quickly led to me calling in a group of four toms to less than 10 yards! I am excited for you to also have one of these amazing calls as a hunting partner for years to come!
