About

49 FlyDowns

49 Flydowns is a project built around a shared passion for the outdoors, storytelling, and the pursuit of meaningful experiences in the field. Led by Kenny Winter, the goal is to document the journey of harvesting a tom turkey across the 49 states where they are found (sorry, Alaska), capturing the landscapes, challenges, and moments that make each location unique.

More than a personal challenge, 49 Flydowns is about connecting people to the outdoors, sharing authentic experiences, and showcasing the diversity of environments and opportunities across the country.

THE RULES

01
One Bird, One State
Every state counts. One tom per state, no shortcuts, no stacking the odds.
02
Boots on the Ground
No armchair hunting. Every hunt happens in the field, in real conditions, start to finish.
03
Play It Honest
Fair chase only. Respect the land, the birds, and the tradition behind the hunt.
04
Capture the Moment
If it didn’t happen on camera, it didn’t happen. Every hunt gets documented and shared.
