Turkey hunters in the south are off to the races, chasing gobbling birds through the swamps and pines. Meanwhile, much of the rest of the country waits for the temps to finally warm and the last of the snow to melt, still a couple weeks away from thinking about turkey hunting. But what if there was a way for you to hunt turkeys RIGHT NOW, weeks before the season begins in your state?

In this episode of the Wisconsin Sportsman Podcast, Josh talks with Paul Campbell about extending your turkey season by heading south. Paul is a diehard turkey hunter from Ohio, and he's no stranger to traveling to turkey hunt. This year, he got his earliest start ever, and it resulted in him taking his very first Osceola Turkey. Give this one a listen as the guys discuss turkey hunting stories, tactics, and some tips for those hoping to extend their turkey season.

On this episode of The Western Rookie Podcast, Brian talks with Duane Sessions about being a trophy husband and getting to hunt the entire fall.

Duane and Brian met last fall in Montana while chasing bugles with bows. Duane and his brother were camping nearby, and the guys talked almost daily between glassing spots and bonfire chats. Duane and his group helped Brian and Brian’s brother out of a tricky spot while in Montana and they have stayed in touch throughout the off season. Hear how Duane structured his life and his family to be able to hunt as much as he wants, why he never wants to ride a horse again, and how he adapts season to season and gets in on bulls.

In this week’s [UNCENSORED] podcast by GoWild, Dan begins the show with some breaking news about a man who was imprisoned for beating someone to death with a moose antler. If you had to defend yourself with big game antler, which animal would you pick from? Brayden and Phil went shed antler hunting in a place that has been producing giant bucks. Find out how they used trail cam footage to know where to look for sheds. We also talked about several reasons why deer sheds are so hard to find. Dan has some unique coffee-drinking preferences.

The guys talk about their recent trout fishing trip: Find out why Dan didn’t make it. They met up with some GoWild members and had a good time. We share a must-visit location for anyone fishing in Kentucky or looking to try out fly fishing and want to catch some tasty trout. Jacob mentions what makes this time of year his dream time for fishing. He also mentions one thing to watch out for with your fly line and how to get some help from a buddy with a net. Jacob goes into battle after a brute. 

[UNCENSORED] by GoWild kicks off your week with shameful nonsense, inappropriate convictions, and unfiltered tales from the woods, waters and whatevers. [UNCENSORED] is a behind the scenes look at our adventures, failures, wins, embarrassing moments at trade shows, hilarious tales from the warehouse, and a good rant or three about the most recent tyranny from the Dark Lord of the Sith himself.

On this episode of Huntavore, the Emperor’s Table continues to fill up as the Missouri Woods & Water hosts, Nathan, Micha, and Andy join Nick for a fantastic chat. We talk about celebration meals, including Nathan enjoying venison steak with his boy. Things go sideways as Nick loses power, but the gang finishes with their submission to the Emperor's Table. Join us for a great episode of Huntavore.

On today’s episode Nick is joined by the whole crew from Missouri Woods & Water Podcast, Nathan, Micha, and Andy. These guys are always looking to hang out together, or find a way to be outdoors. The guys like to chase coyotes as much as deer, yet cautious of putting one on a grill or smoker. However, Micha has a love for red meat; beef and venison alike. Something he prides himself in is his smoked beef tongue. A very underused cut, yet surprises a lot of naysayers with a wonder flavor that isn't off putting. To finish, the three present their submissions to the Emperor’s Table, adding to the wonderful bounty. Check these guys out at the Missouri Woods & Water Podcast on Sportsmen’s Empire.

We have a very special episode on the Oklahoma Outdoors Podcast this week. Tim Slavin runs the Oklahoma Outdoor Outreach Foundation and joins John to talk about the great acts of service they provide. The foundation is celebrating their fifteenth anniversary this year, and their mission is to "provide disabled, chronically and terminally ill individuals the opportunity to enjoy the heritage of outdoor sporting activities." Tim and his volunteers have 16 hunters signed up for their spring turkey hunt coming up this April, and have two deer hunts planned for the fall.

Tims passion for this project shines through as he talks about the hunts and opportunities they are able to offer. Those opportunities take a lot of work though, and the organization is always looking for more volunteers. Tim talks about who is eligible for their hunts, and what they are looking for in volunteers. Even if you are not an experienced hunter, they are always needing folks to help around camp to cook, clean, and organize. If you don't feel comfortable being a guide, and cleaning isn't your thing, they are more than happy to accept financial help as well. They are a 501 c3 non-profit organization, and you can learn more by listening to this podcast, or check out their facebook and website at oklahomaoutdooroutreach.org.

On this episode of the Hunting Gear Podcast, Dan talks with fellow podcaster Brian Krebs about budgeting and saving for hunting equipment purchases. Brian and Dan talks about the "buy once, cry once" purchasing method where you are more than likely to spend a larger sum of money upfront in order to gain a product that lasts a long time. Then, once you have all of the equipment you need, essentially there is no cost to hunting outside of tags and licenses. Unless you are a true gear junkie who buy hunting gear every season no matter what.

Brian talks about how he pulls money directly out of every paycheck in to a specific account he sets aside for hunting gear. This allows him to know exactly how much money he has to play with every year. The guys also talk about how and where to look for deals and discounts. Fun episode you will be sure to enjoy!

Welcome to the Limbhanger Turkey Hunting Podcast! This week, we're catching up on turkey season so far. Sharing the stories from Parker & Adam's trip to Florida. Funny enough, our ethics episode from last week had to be put to practice on the opener. You'll definitely want to hear about that!

Aside from that we talk about hunting mentorship, our opinions on some state's regs (based solely on our opinion and not even remotely factual even a little bit), and we also lose our Kentucky listeners this week. It's great. Really! Gobble Gobble.

On this week's episode of the Pennsylvania Woodsman, Mitch was privileged to speak with Dr. Grant Woods from Growing Deer TV. If you've followed along with Dr. Woods for any length of time, you know how dedicated he has been to producing educational content through his channel. With over 700 episodes of Growing Deer TV, the trials and research conducted at his farm "The Proving Grounds" are well documented. Within this content is a journey of striving to provide high quality food plots through building healthy soil.

Food plot content has been taken to a crazy level in the media. More people have dabbled in food plots than not, and there are more "professionals" now than ever before. Like deer hunting, food plots can have an ego associated with the time, money, and blends growers put out. Regardless of differing food plot blend preferences, we can all agree that good food plots start with good soil. Dr. Woods shares with us how he has developed his food plot system to promote quality soil and highly efficient nutrient exchange. We navigate the journey to the current day, and practices such as no-till and the learning curves associated with this management. Dr. Woods addresses much of the confusion about the seed blends he uses and how each blend has a very specific purpose. You'll learn how this system is allowing him to feed more wildlife with fewer input costs than ever before!
