Gear Guy Gavin is fresh off a trip to St. Paul Island to hunt King Eider. For most of us, this would be considered a dream bucket list type hunt. Even the pinnacle trip for many. Gavin relives the trip and gives us a look at what it really takes to make a trip for king eiders work. From the planning and how to get there to the actual hunting, he gives a great view of what that trip really involves. Thanks so much for listening and be sure to subscribe and review!

This week for Ten Minute Tuesday, Cal and Gavin are fresh off a couple of hunting trips and we want to revisit how to pack for a trip. We’re doing this in part because Gavin is realizing he always overpacks, a realization Cal had last year. We discuss how to pair things down and be realistic about what you actually need on a hunting trip. Lugging around extra gear is only a pain in the ass for one person, YOU! Listen in to rethink how you travel. Be sure to subscribe and review!

It’s Ten Minute Tuesday and this week we’re talking about how we approach calling on each hunt depending on where you’re going to be hunting. Duck calling in a field vs on the water and goose calling in a field vs on the water. We go through when we want to call, how loud or quiet and what notes we like to use best in each situation. This was a listener question sent in to us and you can send one in too! Hit us up on Instagram or send an email to [email protected]  Thanks for listening and be sure to subscribe and review!

This week Cal and Joey are joined by Matt Flummerfelt. Matt has hunted different places with Cal and Joey and is a serious goose hunter back home in Iowa. We talk with Matt about when the best time is to go hunt vs. scout especially when it’s a snow day! Snow and weather can change birds and how they pattern and feed. When you see snow on the forecast, maybe it’s time to pack up the truck and go sit in a field! We finish up with a day what segment back in studio.

We also get into a few recent topics including the resurgence of bird flu, and have a discussion on domestic mallards taking over populations of wild birds. We wrap things up with a Say What segment.

Merry Christmas to all of our listeners! With all this new ice and snow in Minnesota, we wanted to do a quick Ten Minute Tuesday on some basic safety reminders for hunters that are in the thick of some late season hunting. Ice, cold water, slushy rivers and snow packed fields present some of the best hunting opportunities. With it, comes a lot more danger and the need for a sharpened awareness. We highlight a few pieces of this and hope our listeners will be smart while closing out the year! Thanks for listening and be sure to subscribe and review!

Cal and Joey sit down with Rod Haydel of Haydel’s Game Calls to discuss a bunch of different topics. We talk about how Haydel’s got their start with Rod’s father and now what Rod and his family have built in terms of a great company and waterfowl legacy. Rod tells us how many DR-85’s he thinks have been sold and how many people are still using that call religiously to this day. If you haven’t ever seen or blown one of these calls, you should. More people have started on this call than any other. We also hear about the first deer grunt and how Haydel’s really transformed from just making duck calls into what they produce today.
