Ep. 483 – Master Carver Jerry Talton on the Art and Tradition of Decoy Making

DUCKS UNLIMITED NATION TRIP AUCTION!On this episode of Ducks Unlimited podcast, host Katie Burke interviews Master Carver Jerry Talton. In this interview, Talton talks about how he got interested in carving decoys and shares his experience of growing up in the outdoors and his introduction to hunting and fishing. Growing up in North Carolina, he was initially interested in surfing and  even carved his own surfboards. He explains how after coming across a decoy he eventually gifted to his brother, he began to become increasingly interested in how decoys were carved and began to carve them himself. Talton further explains the story of his first duck hunt, where he shot a green-winged teal, which he claims to be God's favorite duck to shoot and eat, as it tastes the best.Instagram: @jerrytaltondecoyswww.ducks.org/DUPodcast DUCKS UNLIMITED NATION TRIP AUCTION!
