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.

Follow Your Arrow… and join the adventure!
A lifelong native of Michigan, Judy Black has always loved the thrill of hunting, the beauty of nature and the joys of camp life. So when she wrapped her hands around her first bow on Christmas Day 2003, she discovered her true passion.
An exciting read for hunters, adventurers and nature lovers alike, Follow Your Arrow chronicles sixteen years of Judy’s bowhunting adventures – the triumphs and challenges, the highs and lows, and the special moments in between.
Travel with Judy around the world to hunt majestic animals and meet incredible people along the way. Join her as she sets her sights on whitetails at her own camp, wild hogs in the Texas brush, big cats in snowy British Columbia, bears in Saskatchewan bush, musk ox in the frozen Arctic, stags and goats in breathtaking New Zealand, exotic game on the African savanna and more. Walk in her boots as she climbs mountains, fords streams, crosses bogs, and pushes herself beyond her physical and emotional limits.
Much more than a hunting and traveling memoir, Follow Your Arrow is a call to get out and experience the great, wide world full of beauty around us.
WILD GIRLS: How the Outdoors Shaped the Women Who Challenged a Nation
by Tiya Miles
USED BOOK: Hardcover, Like New – Photos are of the actual book you’ll receive. This has no noticeable damage, no writing – appears to never have been used.
A New York Times Book Review Editors’ Choice
A Publishers Weekly and New York Public Library Best Book of the Year
Named a Most Anticipated Book of the Year by The Millions and Literary Hub
An award-winning historian shows how girls who found self-understanding in the natural world became women who changed America.
This beautiful, meditative work of history puts girls of all races—and the landscapes they loved—at center stage and reveals the impact of the outdoors on women’s independence, resourcefulness, and vision. For these trailblazing women of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, navigating the woods, following the stars, playing sports, and taking to the streets in peaceful protest were not only joyful pursuits, but also techniques to resist assimilation, racism, and sexism. Lyrically written and full of archival discoveries, Wild Girls evokes landscapes as richly as the girls who roamed in them—and argues for equal access to outdoor spaces for young women of every race and class today.
“Thoroughly absorbing.… A beautiful synthesis of diverse women’s experiences, combining history with memoir and a call to action.” —Jill Watts, New York Times Book Review

FROM THE FIELD TO YOUR TABLE
Hunting for Food ~ Guide to Harvesting, Field Dressing and Cooking Wild Game

Thirteen chapters covering deer, wild hog, rabbit, squirrel, wild turkey, quail, dove, pheasant, waterfowl, game fish, turtle, frog and crayfish with hunting information and tips, step-by-step cleaning instructions and photos, as well as cooking methods and recipes.

Big Game Gut Glove “Reusable” Long Field Dressing Gloves are perfect for any big game, such as deer, elk, moose, bear, hogs, gators, African animals and many more. Just wash them off and you are ready for your next hunt!
Available sizes in XSmall to Medium to fit youth and women! And these gloves feature a self-tightening shoulder grip to keep the gloves from slipping down your sleeves/arms.
As hunters, we also often spend so much money on our camo clothing and materials – so why not take a small step to protect them?! A small investment for protecting hundreds of dollars worth of gear. Extra long 26-inch length keeps your clothing from the blood, messes and smell of big game field dressing.
Made from tough, synthetic rubber, these gloves give you added protection from bones, errant knife and saw cuts, and other sharp hazards (like broadheads!) while field dressing. Big Game Gut Glove field dressing gloves allow you to work more quickly and firmly with less fear of cutting yourself during field dressing. You’ll gain confidence while field dressing, knowing you can work safely and quickly.
Because of the tough materials these gloves are made of, they are also great for messy jobs or jobs that require submersion of your hands into potentially dangerous or noxious chemicals or liquids.
Two gloves are included in the packaging: a left and a right glove.
Refer to product gallery photo for sizing information.
Editor’s Note: I have been using Big Game Gut Glove field dressing gloves for years, and not only do I love them for protecting my hunting clothing, but also they have definitely saved me (more than once!) from a cut on my hand from my own accidental knife mishandling while field dressing. I love how thick and long these gloves are – so much better than the cheap, throwaway gloves!
Sizing tip – for a woman, I have pretty large, long hands so in women’s gloves I am often a size large and men’s gloves I am often a size medium. These gloves are in men’s sizes so I find them true to fit and use a size medium. See the product gallery photo for sizing measurements, but hope this helps! ~Jen
