Description

With the holiday season now behind us, it's finally time to prepare for spring turkey hunting season. Join us as we relive of a pair of solo turkey hunts and detail the changes we made in respect to whether or not we had roosted the gobbler at hand the night before. We're also thrilled to bring you news about an exciting piece of literature releasing in January, with all the details on upcoming events like the Turkey Tailgate and Callmakers Showcase at Mossy Oak in West Point, Mississippi.

Reflecting on the challenges of getting in tight on a roosted turkey, we share insights into the behavior of these fascinating creatures. From the unexpected silence of a turkey on the limb to the impact of predators like owls, each day in the turkey woods offers new lessons. 

You'll hear about memorable hunts in special spots and the nuances of interpreting turkey calls amid complex terrains. Whether navigating ridges, gullies, or fields, the strategies shared provide valuable knowledge for both the seasoned hunter and those new to the sport.

Finding success in turkey hunting often involves a strategic approach, and our stories emphasize the importance of patience and adaptability. From the decision-making process of choosing the right spot to the tactics needed to outsmart lone gobblers (and the groups of jakes or hens with him) every hunt is a unique puzzle. Sharing personal experiences, we highlight the art of reading nature's signals to impact the outcome. With a blend of humor and humility, these narratives capture the essence of the hunt, offering inspiration and practical tips to enhance your turkey hunting adventures.
