In this episode, we dive into one trait that separates successful turkey hunters from the rest: commitment. From waking up before dawn to hiking into unfamiliar territory, to pushing through the tough mornings when gobblers go silent — it all comes back to how much you're willing to put in because of how much you love it.

We talk about:

• Why committing to hunting new places sharpens your skills and opens new doors
• The value of early mornings and late nights in the woods
• How consistency and dedication to calling pays off in the long run
• Pushing through the hard parts of the season when others give up
• The mindset of a hunter who’s not just interested — but truly committed to the pursuit
• Whether you're a seasoned turkey hunter or still figuring it out, this episode is a reminder that the more heart you put in, the more the woods give back. 
• You’re not doing it because it’s easy — you’re doing it because you love it.

In this episode, we dive into one of the most underrated but critical skills for successful turkey hunting: patience. Whether you're sitting in the woods waiting for that gobbler to come into range or navigating life’s challenges, patience can make all the difference.

I share how my early days of fishing helped me build patience and how those lessons carried over into the turkey woods. We'll also talk about why confidence in your setup is just as important—because if you believe in the spot you're hunting, you're much more likely to stay put long enough for success to happen.

This episode is part hunting tactics, part life wisdom, and 100% real talk from the field.

What You'll Learn:

• Why patience can make or break your turkey hunt
• How fishing taught me to slow down and wait with purpose
• The connection between patience and confidence in your hunting spot
• How practicing patience in the outdoors can spill over into everyday life
• Mindset tips for staying focused, calm, and committed in the woods

Today on the how to hunt turkey podcast I recap my morning hunt and talk about why it is a good idea to hunt with your friends. I make the argument that it is worth the loss of sleep, the efforts to make new friends and the sacrifice of not always being the man on the trigger. Some notable pros of hunting with your friends are that it makes you a better Hunter. It helps you learn how to hide better. It helps you understand what you need to work on. I also talk about how it's easier to take the low points of turkey hunting and it makes the high points much better. Not to mention it's easier to see with two sets of eyes and to hear with two sets of ears and we all know the old quote. Two heads are better than one!
