Billy Yargus of Ewing, Missouri won the Mossy Oak All America Turkey Calling Contest which was held at Mack's Prairie Wings store in Stuttgart, Arkansas over the weekend of February 25 & 26.
The two day contest started on Saturday with preliminary competition. Using a different format than most turkey calling contests, the All American brought back all the callers to call in the finals on Sunday, and then combined the score of each contestant for the two day event. This meant to win the contest; a caller had to be at the top of their game for both days to win.
Yargus walked away with a check for $2500.00, a two day turkey hunt in Oklahoma with Drop Tine Hunts and a unique trophy.
"I will tell you that God blessed me during both days of this contest and I was able to deliver good clean runs that the judges liked both days," said Yargus. "I feel honored to have won this contest which included a tough group of competitors."
Billy Yargus is a National Pro Staff member for Mossy Oak and has competed in a number of Turkey Calling contests.
