Joel Kleefisch and Danielle Fairman are back in the saddle, here to capture the essence of spring in Wisconsin with world-famous hunter Chad Belding, host of "The Fowl Life," who lends a national perspective to the localized passion for turkey hunting in Wisconsin. Together, they delve into the specifics of hunting zones, discuss turkey population insights, and highlight the unique topography of Wisconsin that offers hunters diverse experiences across the state.

NAtive wisconsinites and outlanders alike will absorb valuable knowledge about prime hunting locales, from the rolling hills near Spring Green—known for landmarks like Frank Lloyd Wright's architecture and the House on the Rock—to the challenging terrains of Western Wisconsin. The conversation also explores the broader impacts of hunting, such as predator populations’ effects on local wildlife and the supportive involvement of the community in hunting activities. The dialogue is peppered with personal stories and a palpable excitement that authentically captures the spirit of Wisconsin’s outdoor culture.

Plus, Joel, Danielle, and Chad discuss the cooperative relationship between hunters and local landowners, enhancing the hunting experience. They also consider the broader implications of hunting regulations and conservation efforts, providing a holistic view of the sport’s role in regional ecology and community.
