Simply put, he was born to hunt. The youngest of ten children, born and raised in the hills of the Ozarks, Alex's first hunt came at the age of five...a lifelong obsession with wildlife was born.
As part of the nation's first turkey restoration program, in Shannon County, Missouri, Alex's parents raised turkeys...giving young Alex the perfect opportunity to study, learn, and master their mannerisms, and vocalizations. Through a childhood spent literally growing up among tame birds, Alex mastered the art of turkey calling - becoming the Missouri State Turkey Calling Champion in 1986, before capturing the National Turkey Gobbling Championship in 1988.
These achievements did not go unnoticed - Alex was asked to co-host the first-ever Governor's Invitational Hunts in the states of Ohio and Missouri.
In recognition of more than twenty years of extraordinary achievement in the outdoors industry, Alex was inducted into the Legends of the Outdoors Hall of Fame in 2007, becoming the youngest member ever of this prestigious organization.
For the hunting experience of a lifetime, with a true son of the outdoors, book a Dream Hunt with Alex Rutledge....the birds are out there...the memories are waiting.
