In this episode, Caleb Siman takes us deep into the 2025 Ohio spring turkey season — and the obsession that's taken over his woods. 11 times he's been face-to-face with the same stubborn gobbler, but the perfect shot on camera continues to slip away. From early morning setups to heart-pounding close calls, Caleb walks us through the highs, frustrations, and pure grit it takes to chase one bird across an entire season. Let's be honest — post a big buck, and the likes roll in. Post a strutting longbeard? Crickets. In this episode, Caleb & Isaac also dive into the weird reality of turkey hunting content on social media. Despite the challenge, the calling, and the chess match of spring gobblers, turkey season just doesn't seem to get the respect it deserves online. Is it the lack of antlers? The short attention span of the algorithm? Or is turkey hunting just for the diehards now? They break it all down — the passion, the frustration, and why he keeps chasing longbeards even when nobody seems to care.
