Still at age eleven, Keenan Adams became
the youngest person ever to take a World Slam in turkey hunting with a Matthews Bow. The turkey was taken at the Manley Farms in Gadsden County, Florida.
Keenan was born in 1993. He learned at a very young age to appreciate the land and wilderness.
His father and Uncle Buddy took him turkey hunting before he could even walk. When they would leave without him he would cry to go. By the age of three, he was at his fathers side every time his father would go hunting.
His father and Uncle Buddy were diligent in their rules of hunting safety. As Keenan turned five his Uncle Herb, who is retired from the Georgia DNR, started teaching him the importance of hunter safety.
He would beg to hunt himself. His father insisted he study for his hunting certificate. At the age of seven his father took him to take the test. The instructor informed him that he thought Keenan was too young and if he was to take the hunting certificate test that his father would not be allowed to assist. Roy stated that he understood and thought Keenan was ready to take the test. Keenan completed the test and was the only hunter out of 40 hunters to make a 100.
