Michigan State Chapter
of the National Wild Turkey Federation

"Dedicated to the conservation of the wild turkey and the preservation of the hunting tradition"


Dedicated to providing all people with disabilities the opportunity to enjoy the great outdoors.


With the same dedication it has brought to restoring wild turkey populations across North America, the National Wild Turkey Federation is delivering, and in some cases re-introducing, the beauty and excitement of the outdoors to thousands of disabled people through it's latest program, Wheelin' Sportsmen NWTF.

The program was created by a merger between the Alabama-based Wheelin' Sportsmen of America and the NWTF. Wheelin' Sportsmen NWTF is the realization of both organizations' commitment to creating a national effort to provide the disabled with opportunities to get out and enjoy the outdoors.

The NWTF is already known for it's outdoor education efforts for men, women and young people, and with the addition for Wheelin' Sportsmen NWTF, it give the Federation the most comprehensive offering of outreach program of any conservation organization.

Whether it is shooting, hunting, fishing, archery or golf, there is no limit to the outdoor opportunities Wheelin' Sportsmen NWTF can bring to the disabled person eager to get outside and participate in a more active lifestyle. To learn more about this exciting program contact the NWTF at 1-800-THE-NWTF.
