Hand Carved Hunting Calls AND Winter Camping

 

              

Welcome Dave Constantine to the show, this is his first visit with us, and we hope, not the last.    Dave has hunted and fished since he was 12 years old.  Along with his outdoor skills, he is an incredible artist and wood carver – look at his work in photos above!  Dave is a 6-time national woodcarving champion and has won the Wisconsin Wild Turkey Stamp design.  And…Dave is an 11-time  NWTF (National Wild Turkey Federation)  Grand National Call Maker of the Year.   Dave also hosts from 3 to 5 wood carving workshops per year in Durand, Wisconsin – teaching carving, burning, composition, and design.  That is an awesome workshop.
