Since 1973 the National Wild Turkey Federation has fought to conserve wild turkeys and protect the hunting heritage. In 2016, the organization is asking for your help. More specifically, it's asking members—both current and prospective—to "Rise and Fly" and help spread the mission's good word.

American Hunter recently joined NWTF's Matt Lindler in Florida to hunt the Osceola subspecies. While there, Matt explained #RiseAndFly and its mission. Learn more about it with the video embedded above.
