This past week I hit the road and landed deep in the heart of Texas. I sat down with Kevin Burleson and his partner Mark Bradberry of Heart of Texas Bowhunting to dive into the gritty details of chasing whitetails on legendary Texas land. We’re covering DIY hunts and what makes Texas a bowhunter’s dream.

We’re throwing it back to trapping season for this week’s episode, recorded right here in the Camo Cave with our good friend and trapping expert Alan Probst. Alan’s made the trip from Pennsylvania to the Deep South more times than we can count, and every visit brings real impact… on our land, our wildlife, and our understanding of both.

In this conversation, Alan shares valuable tips and techniques for managing predators and explains how effective trapping can directly improve your turkey flock. There’s no better teacher or ambassador for the trapping community, and if you care about land, legacy, and more birds…

this one’s a must-listen.

This week, I’m fresh back from The Roost in Nebraska, where I took two of my grandsons on a trip we’ll never forget. Middle grandson Matt wrapped up his Grand Slam with a beautiful Merriam, and Cranky, true to form, grabbed a Rio because, in his words, he “came to kill a turkey!”

After hearing the boys recap their hunts, I get a little sentimental. This trip marked the end of an era, as my longtime friend Jim Kuhn is retiring from outfitting and this was our last hunt together at The Roost.

Tune in for a mix of hunting stories, Roost memories, and plenty of laughs, as we celebrate friendships, family, and the places that mean the most. It’s not just about the turkeys, it’s about the people you chase them with.

We’re back in the Camo Cave with Andrew Maxwell and Jacob Myers of the Southern Outdoorsmen Podcast for Part 2 of our conversation… and if you thought last week was good, this one goes even deeper. In this episode, we swap more stories and dig into their early influences. Join us for a laid-back conversation with two guys who are walking the walk.

This week we’re visiting with the guys from the Southern Outdoorsmen Podcast, Andrew Maxwell and Jacob Myers. They originally came to town to interview me for their show… but of course, I had to bring them into the Camo Cave and turn the mic around.

We talk hunting, podcasting and how they built a show that speaks directly to hunters. If you’ve never listened to their show, this is your intro. And if you’re already a fan, you’ll love hearing the conversation flip their way. Tune in and meet two guys who are keeping it real, one hunt at a time.

I’m back from Florida, with two of my grandsons by my side, and it was one for the books. We didn’t bring home any Osceolas, but we had some heart‑pounding encounters and a surprise discovery of what might be Florida’s best buffet according to Cranky. 

Sure, no turkeys fell, but watching these boys learn, grow, and share in the tradition made this trip one of my most memorable. Tune in to hear all about it!

This week, we sat down with Mossy Oak founder Toxey Haas and Gamekeepers’ Bobby Cole to talk about spring food plots… but as conversations tend to do around here, we took a hard turn down memory lane.

What started as a simple discussion about land and wildlife turned into an unforgettable storytelling session about the origins of Mossy Oak, the people who built it, and the moments that shaped all of us. Even a few stories I had never heard!

If you love Mossy Oak & hunting history ~ this episode is one you won’t want to miss. Tune in and enjoy some never-before-told tales from the folks who lived them.

Back from our annual Florida veterans hunt, and this one was special! Six out of seven hunters took home their first Osceola, but more importantly, they left with memories that will last a lifetime. From the power of the outdoors in healing to how you can get involved with Patriots Four and help our nation’s warriors, this episode is all about giving back, gratitude, and the bonds built in the woods.

Tune in for the full recap, and if you want to support these heroes, visit PatriotsFour.org

We’re closing out the Secret Sauce Series with nothing short of a grand slam, a sit-down with the legendary Paul Butski. I like to call him the Tiger Woods of the turkey woods. Paul’s calling skills have not only won him championship after championship, but they’ve also made him a living legend in the turkey hunting world.

In this episode, we hit him with the same 20 questions we’ve asked every guest — and the answers are pure gold. If you love turkey hunting, you know his name. Now hear his secrets.
