Been in the mood to do some reading.  Started looking around at books I would be interested in and found The Turkey Hunting world of Ben Lee.  I have seen the book before and was interested in it but never pulled the trigger.  Stories of Ben Lee have interested me and I know he was quite the hunter it seems.  I have ordered the book, but was curious what others thought of it?  Thanks for any input.

I listened to a lot of his cassettes back when I began turkey hunting. Very entertaining.

I collect turkey hunting books( not a huge collection but probably around 200 or so some duplicate copies) and although I haven't read it in awhile remember it was definitely worth reading. Another good inexpensive how to book was The secrets to successful turkey hunting by John Phillips . Enjoy the read..

He seemed to have done a lot of living in a short amount of time.  Gone too soon.

Good read.  You will notice a bit of difference in "perspective" maybe between then and now.  Turkey hunting for a lot of folks these days is not how he did it.  I would wonder what he would say now......

I enjoyed watching videos he was in.  Very entertaining.
