We're kicking off the Unloaded series where we unload on today's hottest topics in the hunting and outdoor industry. We're joined by good friends, Clayton Holmes and Cody Marshall, as we dive into one of the biggest controversies going right now among hunters - the use of fanning decoys for turkey hunting. Some hunters love them, other hunters hate them. Regardless of what side you're on, things are getting heated as the debate continues to ramp up. The use of the fanning/reaping technique has already been outlawed in a number of states on public land, and others are calling for banning these decoys altogether.
Avid turkey hunter - and reaper - Michael Waddell has found himself in the middle of the controversy over his stance in favor of the fanning tactic.
Will is stay, or will it go? Join us for the conversation in our first Unloaded episode of the Hunting Roots podcast.
