Westervelt Lodge is thrilled to announce the launch of its new Turkey Hunting School, designed to provide hunters of all levels with expert guidance and hands-on experience in the art of turkey hunting. This programme is set to elevate hunting skills and deepen the understanding of effective turkey hunting techniques.

Steven Carroll, Westervelt Lodge Manager, shared his excitement: "Our Turkey Hunting School offers a unique opportunity for hunters to learn from the best. Our expert instructors are dedicated to providing comprehensive training and ensuring that each participant leaves with enhanced skills and a greater appreciation for the sport."

The Turkey Hunting School at Westervelt Lodge features a curriculum that covers all aspects of turkey hunting. Participants will gain insights into turkey behaviour, habitat preferences, and seasonal patterns, forming a solid foundation for successful hunting. The programme includes detailed instruction on calling techniques, camouflage, and concealment strategies, essential for attracting and approaching turkeys effectively.

Guided by experienced hunters, participants will engage in practical sessions that allow them to apply their newfound knowledge in real-world scenarios. These hands-on experiences are designed to build confidence and improve hunting skills, making the transition from theory to practice seamless.

Westervelt Lodge’s commitment to safety and ethical hunting practices is integral to the Turkey Hunting School. All participants will receive thorough safety briefings and adhere to best practices throughout the programme, ensuring a safe and responsible hunting environment.

The lodge’s prime location in Alabama provides an ideal setting for the Turkey Hunting School. With abundant wildlife and diverse hunting grounds, participants will have ample opportunities to encounter and hunt wild turkeys in their natural habitat. The lodge's well-managed lands are a testament to its dedication to conservation and sustainable hunting practices.

In addition to the hands-on training, the Turkey Hunting School offers classroom sessions where participants can deepen their understanding of turkey biology and conservation. These educational components highlight the importance of sustainable hunting and the role hunters play in wildlife management.

Westervelt Lodge’s facilities enhance the overall experience for participants. Comfortable accommodations, excellent amenities, and gourmet meals create a welcoming environment where hunters can relax and recharge after a day of training and hunting. The lodge’s hospitality ensures that every aspect of the stay is enjoyable.

Participants will also benefit from the camaraderie and networking opportunities provided by the Turkey Hunting School. Engaging with fellow hunters, sharing experiences, and building connections adds to the richness of the programme, fostering a sense of community and shared passion.

Feedback from early participants has been overwhelmingly positive, with many praising the comprehensive instruction, supportive environment, and overall quality of the programme. These testimonials underscore Westervelt Lodge’s commitment to excellence in hunting education.

Looking forward, Westervelt Lodge plans to expand the Turkey Hunting School, introducing advanced courses and specialised workshops to cater to a broader range of skill levels and interests. This ongoing development ensures that the lodge remains at the forefront of hunting education.
