Outdoor recreation Extension specialist Ronnie Cowan and lecturer Matt Hudson represented the UT School of Natural Resources at the Feather to Fork event held by The Sawbriar at Big South Fork in Fentress County.

The October event pairs hunters, like former UT athletic director and football coach Phillip Fulmer, with Alvin C. York Institute students for morning and afternoon hunts to raise money for the school’s farm. The event also brings together partners to provide information on careers in agriculture.

“They were great and have officially harvested more pheasants and quail than I have at the age of 38,” Cowan said about the students. He added he looks forward to partnering with them to build the next generation of conservationists.
