America Outdoors Radio - July 24, 2021

This week on America Outdoors Radio you'll hear from Dwayne Walley with Tourney X about something very special that occurred at the Bassmaster B.A.S.S. Nation Kayak Series Championship last month at Possum Kingdom Lake in Texas, something special that is continuing today.  It's all about the efforts to help a two-year old child fighting a rare medical condition, J.T. and you'll hear how you can help too.

In addition to this we'll talk to Scott Estes, the man behind the Denali Rod Company in Arkansas and to Pat Schlapper, a Wisconsin angler who made a bold move from working at a Scheel's Sporting Goods Store to becoming a full time bass pro.  It worked, because a year later Schlapper found himself competing in the Bassmaster Classic.

Finally, Day Clayton Luce with Henry Repeating Arms joins us to tell you about the Frontier model .22 caliber lever action rifle.  With a threaded barrel capable of accepting a suppressor, time on the range or hunting in the woods will be quieter than ever!
