From reading a tom's morning mindset to the critical 9-to-noon window that Joe swears by, this episode is packed with practical turkey hunting advice for hunters of every experience level. They cover decoy strategy, when to use (and ditch) a Jake call, the power of silence, and how late-season foliage changes your whole approach.

They also preview two upcoming bear hunts — a DIY spot-and-stalk trip out West in Montana, and Lex and Joe's first baited bear hunt in Saskatchewan, where trail cam pics are already showing some serious boars. Plus, don't miss the announcement of the Second Annual Fairchase Film Festival at Wealthy Street Theater in Grand Rapids on June 18th — featuring the debut of their Saskatchewan bear film and more.
