🎙️ A Woodsman's Perspective with Brent Lochala

In this episode of The Turkey Season Podcast, Paul sits down with Brent Lochala—Mississippi Turkey Hunter, storyteller, and co-host of The Woodsman Perspective podcast—for a wide-ranging, heartfelt, and often hilarious conversation about the culture and ethics of turkey hunting.

From their first impressions of the NWTF Convention chaos in Nashville to stories about field encounters with legends like Harold Knight and Eddie Salter, this episode is packed with the kind of down-home conversation that reminds you why we hunt. Brent and Paul swap tales of public land collisions, out-of-state turkey trips, and reflect on the soul-filling process of the hunt—beyond the trigger pull.

They tackle hot-button topics like decoy use, hunting pressure, and the evolving influence of social media in the turkey woods. Brent shares his journey into podcasting, his love of rural landscapes, and the mission behind The Woodsman Perspective—capturing authentic, grounded voices in the outdoor world.

🦃 If you love turkey hunting stories, campfire wisdom, and a genuine perspective on what it means to be a hunter today, this one’s for you.

🎧 Listen in, and remember: everything you need from a turkey hunt happens before you pull the trigger.
