Bowhunting Freedom - Part 2 of 2 with Travis T-Bone Turner Bone Collector
Part 2 of 2. Travis "T-Bone" Turner, co-host of the Bone Collector and Realtree Road Trips TV shows, is described on the Outdoor Channel's website as the "go-to-guy for anything archery, a constant cut-up, and the man with the uncanny ability to consistently take home big game." He decided to leave an enjoyable and well-paying job at Mercedes so that he could pursue his passion in archery and the outdoors, despite all the uncertainties of this huge career change.
Guest's Opening Quote:
"It wasn’t like I had a goal to be on a TV show back in the early
90’s. Meaning I just wanted to do something in the outdoor industry
and I was open minded enough to know that if doors opened for me, I
would be open minded to it and take those opportunities."
