Sportsmen's Empire - Turkey Hunting

Jared Shaffer is joining the Limbhanger crew this week! If you know anything about Jared it should be that he's an absolute bonafied killer. It doesn't matter what animal he's chasing, he's going to have success. This turkey season was no different as he punched tags in California, West Virginia, Virginia, & Pennsylvania. For the traveling turkey hunter, developing your map scouting skillset is incredibly important.

Jared shares with us some of his process for map scouting in states he's unfamiliar with, and how he narrows down areas based almost solely on topography.

In this week’s [UNCENSORED] podcast by GoWild, we’re continuing our talks about turkey hunting. This time, Dan, Chris, and Jacob got out on a public piece. They heard some gobbles and had a nice setup but ran into some issues with other hunters. They finished the day with some scouting and got a great lead for where to set up next time. We talk about etiquette when hunting turkeys on public land and how to handle other groups in the woods. Sometimes it’s better to have a chat and work together. How do you adapt and adjust when Plan A falls apart? We swap a few stories of the good, bag, and ugly on this troublesome topic. We also discuss some of the key differences between hunting public and private land.

Brayden got out again and hunted an area he’s seen turkeys with lots of good sign. They were getting into their setup and then he realized he forgot one major item at home! They changed plans and managed to bring in a bird in the end, but didn’t punch the tag. They set up under a widowmaker and had a lively chance encounter with a woodpecker. How effective is scratching and scraping for bringing in turkeys?

Derek mentions a hot tip for where to find turkeys late-morning/mid-day after other hunters have been pushing them around. He got out and heard a lot of birds talking in the trees. It’s a tough spot to get in and set up but he made it work. He got a group to come in, they made a ton of noise but ended up getting hung up. He talks through the decision-making process and how to handle a multi-bird situation. He’s still struggling with something from that hunt … is it better to move slowly and quietly when a bird is close or move so quick it won’t have time to understand what’s happening? He also gives a good bit of advice for how to end a hunt on a high note, even when it doesn’t finish with a flop.

Man we've got a treat for you guys this week on the Southern Ground Hunting Podcast. We've been really trying to stick with deer content throughout the spring, but sometimes a turkey hunting story is so good, you just have to share it wherever it can be told. So we're going to tell you a story of how three southern gentlemen traveled to Montana and killed 6 gobblers in an hour. It got western.

This week on the Missouri Woods & Water podcast Nate and Micah get the honor of talking with Torry Cook, owner of MFK Game calls and avid coyote hunter among other things. First, Nate and Micah talk about some of the turkey numbers in our state at the point in which we recorded. Micah also brings back the Chuck Norris jokes so enjoy that! Then, we talk with Torry about what it's like living around wild coyotes and getting to be so close to them throughout their lives. If you don't know, several years ago Torry came acrosssome tiny coyote pups and took care of them to the point that they are ok with him and his wife's presence. He has since done it again and he is able to learn so much about these animals and record some awesome sounds as well. We then get into hunting summer coyotes and the way Torry attacks them this time of year including what sounds and sequenceshe uses among many other things. Thanks for listening and enjoy the show!

In this episode of the Wisconsin Sportsman Podcast, Josh talks with Pierce Nelles about how he recently scored on a double bearded WI gobbler.

Pierce encountered a series of unfortunate events that led to him missing out on a few of the tags he was hoping to have for earlier in the turkey season. Needless to say, by the time Pierce's turkey season rolled around, he was chomping at the bit! After a couple of unsuccessful outings, Pierce made it happen on his first "real" turkey hunt of the year. And the bird was a beaut! 1"+ spurs, 21.5" of total beard length, and a beautiful fan to boot. The guys close out the conversation with a few lessons Pierce learned from this turkey!

In this week’s [UNCENSORED] podcast by GoWild, we’re still talking turkey hunting. Brad got out and tried something new to start the hunt. He talks about a few of the choices he made, for better or for worse. He took a chance but it didn’t quite come together.

Jacob, Dan, and Chris hit a WMA. They set their sights on a pretty remote spot and found out there’s a reason why hunters don’t get back into those areas. They did a bunch of scouting and found a few birds but weren’t being stealthy enough and got busted. They left the area knowing where the birds are and will be coming back.

Brayden got out with his uncle and some buddies too. They got a longbeard to shock gobble on the roost but then he went silent. They got some intel on a few other toms and quickly shifted gears. They planned an ambush and got in between several birds. They brought one in but made one critical mistake … find out what it was to avoid it on your next hunt! After that they decided to chase the other group of birds. They made a move and give a hot tip for keeping gobblers interested. Their sneak paid off and they took a shot, but it was a little too far. It was a great hunt nonetheless. What’s better: killing birds or the chase? We also talk about how much better turkeys can see and hear than we can.

On this week's episode of the Pennsylvania Woodsman, Mitch chat's with Matt Dale from Dale Outdoors. Mitch opens by recapping his exciting week of turkey hunting and filling his second tag at the end of week one with a bow! If you listened to last week's episode of Mitch's opening day gobbler, he talked about using the "whine" call. He first heard this call explained on one of Matt's youtube videos. We begin our conversation by diving into this call - what it is, how and when to use it, and its context for hunting situations.

We continue down the rabbit hole of keeping realism in your turkey calling. This includes using "wheel-wheel's", "do-it do-it's", gobbler yelping, and more. We discuss the value of volume and cadence in calls, especially in everyone's favorite yelping scenario. How does a spring turkey hunter yelp sound vs. how does a real hen yelp sound? Last, Matt recaps a hunt for a bird he called "Quirky", which took 7 hunts until he connected by pulling out an old secret weapon. This is dynamite turkey hunting information to keep you fired up midway through the season!

This week on the Limbhanger Turkey Hunting Podcast, we're getting a quick hunting recap from Joey, Adam, and Parker.

Joey shares some great stories from his trip to Oklahoma where they had 4 successful hunts in 5 days. Adam tells the tale of the gobbler that keeps getting shot, but doesn't seem to ever actually die. Lastly, Parker shares the story of filling his 4th and final Alabama tag on a turkey that maybe shouldn't have died.
