Early Fall Turkey Soup
This week, Cameron and Andy cook up a little turkey soup to help warm you up with the first cool front of the Fall season rolling through most of the country.
Wild turkey news articles from Ohio, Nebraska, Kansas, California, and Tennessee are among the states covered in the articles and press releases in this episode. There are some great wild turkey research projects going on around the country right now that we are hopeful will shed some light on a few of the reasons for wild turkey declines.
Of course, we love to throw in a weird wild turkey story into these soup episodes, so we share one this week of a wild turkey that has been misgendered... by Cameron.

Beau Brooks Seminar from the 2024 NWTF Convention
This week, Cameron and Andy replay the seminar about hunting western wild turkeys that Beau Brooks put on at the NWTF convention in Nashville.
This is a very informative seminar that I feel like everyone can learn a little something from, especially those of us east of the Mississippi River. Beau is a phenomenal caller and natural voice caller, and the presentation is very entertaining as well.

Results from the TN Delayed Season Start Study
This week, Dr. Craig Harper and Dr. David Beuhler with the University of Tennessee join Cameron and Andy on the show to discuss their recommendations from their 7 year study regarding the effects of delaying the start of turkey seasons and the potential for increase in poult recruitment.
The results of the study showed that moving the start of hunting season to later in the year did not greatly affect the initiation of nesting or the start of incubation for wild turkey hens. Drs Buehler and Harper share the details of the study and upcoming vote to possibly change the start date of the turkey hunting season.
This is a very informative interview with information that can be applicable for any states that are considering moving the start date of their seasons to later in the year.
