Mark and Terry Drury Talk Turkey and Share Unexplained Hunting Stories | 100% Wild Podcast Ep. 469

In this 10th anniversary episode of the 100% Wild Podcast, Matt Drury and Tim Kjellesvik welcome outdoor legends Terry and Mark Drury to the studio to celebrate a decade of podcasting. The crew marks this milestone by announcing a massive new sponsorship with Bass Pro Shops, the premier brand in conservation and the outdoor industry. They dive into the history of Drury Outdoors, reflecting on the evolution of hunting media from the early days of linear VHS tape editing to the modern integration of DeerCast technology while highlighting the impact of visionaries like Johnny Morris.

The group recounts some of their most unbelievable field experiences, including Terry's infamous "missing time" UFO encounter during a turkey hunt 25 years ago. Mark and Terry share expert insights on the current state of the deer herd, the mystery of declining age classes, and the timeless woodsman skills that are becoming a lost art.
