In this episode I am recording in the beautiful mountains of Georgia on the evening of opening day. Today's show features my good buddy Tyler Cook, who I met last year hunting public land down here. This episode is a recap of our successful hunt from opening morning. We located a gobbler on the limb at first light, and shortly after he flew down he went quiet for hours. We ended up keeping tabs on the bird and caught back up with him at about 9:30 am... by 10:30 he was flopping, and we were celebrating. We do a deep dive in this episode of the strategies we implemented to ultimately make the harvest, including calling tactics, set up, positioning and more. Thanks for listening!

Major changes are coming to Colorado’s big game draw—are you prepared to adapt your hunting strategy? In this episode of the Western Rookie Podcast, Brian Krebs breaks down the significant updates recently announced by Colorado Parks and Wildlife set to take effect in 2028, dramatically impacting how hunters apply for tags in the state.
Brian covers the shift from Colorado’s traditional preference point system to a new 50/50 split between preference and bonus points, explaining exactly what this means for high- and low-point holders alike. You'll learn why planning ahead is crucial, how the new allocation affects residents and non-residents, and why the elimination of certain point codes could change your application strategy significantly.
Dive deeper into the specifics of changes for highly coveted species, including deer, elk, bear, antelope, turkey, moose, sheep, and goat tags, and understand how CPW’s evolving management approach might affect your odds in the future. Brian also gives practical advice on managing your points effectively between now and 2028, discusses the implications of new preference point fees, and outlines the new auto-reissue rules for returned or leftover licenses.
