Turkey season is right around the corner, and in this episode we dive into some of the most common questions hunters have heading into the woods. We cover when locator calls actually work (and when they don’t), how often you should check on a gobbling turkey before the season opens, and what to expect when hunting pressured public land in the South. We also talk through shotgun setups, choke and ammo combinations, and how long it realistically takes most hunters to kill their first turkey. Topics in this episode: • When and how to use locator calls for turkeys • How often you should scout a gobbling bird • Dealing with hunting pressure on public land • Turkey choke and ammo setups that actually work • How long it takes most hunters to kill their first turkey If you’ve got turkey questions you want answered on a future episode, submit them on our website.
