April 14, 2023 Ep. 127 The Best Turkey Tactics From the Best Turkey Hunter, Heath Rayfield
Someday I'll shoot a turkey. And when I do it will be because of the coaching I've received from Heath Rayfield. He is an incredible turkey hunter and guide. This was my absolute favorite turkey podcast I've ever heard. I'm talking all of other podcasts featuring the topic. Heath does a masterful job of breaking down his highly effective method for notching turkey tags, and I think you and I both will be walking into turkey country a lot more confident after listening.

You've heard me talking about this episode for a long time... finally I sat down with Jake and Feik to hear them recap their mule deer hunt from this past September. It's a great story that will leave you feeling inspired to try new, and challenging hunts. It's also a great conversation on spot and stalk hunting, and using traditional archery tackle effectively. We also talk turkeys, sheds, and hunting from the ground.
