Send us Fan MailThree turkeys in one spring sounds like bragging rights until you hear what it actually takes. I'm Ken Marr, and I sit down with Ontario turkey hunter and caller Adrian Hare to unpack a wild run that spans three countries and three very different birds: an Osceola in South Florida, a Gould's turkey in Durango, Mexico, and an Eastern turkey back home in Ontario. If you love spring turkey hunting, this one is packed with the kind of details you only get from someone who has chased gobblers for decades and still pays attention to what the woods are telling him. We start with Adrian's background on the Quaker Boy pro staff and what competition calling taught him about diaphragm calls, reed counts, and why certain cuts create the rasp and realism hunters chase. Then we dig into tactics that travel: how to hunt quieter Osceola turkeys without overcalling, why a patient sit can beat running and gunning, and how he approaches morning birds versus afternoon birds. We also get into shotgun decisions like using a 410 with TSS, pattern confidence, and how regulations and shot size choices affect performance. Mexico shifts the strategy again. Adrian explains why dry country makes water holes the center of the game for Gould's turkeys, how fast these birds move, and what rocky hills and valleys mean for setups and calling. Finally, we come back to Ontario for a blunt look at turkey population drops after deep snow winters, why fewer hens changes everything, and what hunters can watch for as hatch rates and spring weather shape the future. If you enjoyed this conversation, subscribe so you don't miss the next one, share it with a turkey buddy, and leave a quick review so more hunters can find the show.Check us out on Facebook Hunts On Outfitting, or myself Ken Marr.

In this episode of the Pennsylvania Woodsman, Mitchell kicks off a new multi-part turkey season series focused on breaking down the season week by week — starting with opening week in Pennsylvania. After sharing a candid and personal reflection on priorities, time, and the temptation to let hunting take center stage, he resets the focus on what truly matters: faith, family, and keeping the pursuit in its proper place. It's an honest look at the internal struggle many hunters face this time of year, and a reminder that success isn't defined by a filled tag. From there, Mitchell is joined by Jason Miller for a deep dive into how experienced hunters approach the first few days of turkey season. The conversation covers everything from managing hunting pressure and respecting other hunters to breaking down property selection, early-season calling strategy, and reading birds in real time. With a heavy emphasis on situational awareness and patience, they discuss when to be aggressive, when to back off, and how understanding bird behavior early in the season can set the tone for weeks to come. This episode blends real-world tactics with hard-earned perspective. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In this episode of the Hunting Gear Podcast, host Dan Johnson and Mark Boardman from Vortex Optics discuss various aspects of hunting, focusing on the use of red dot sights. They share personal hunting stories, particularly about blacktail deer hunting, and delve into the advantages of using red dots for turkey hunting. The conversation covers the durability, functionality, and ease of use of red dots, as well as specific recommendations for turkey hunting optics. They also touch on the importance of proper sighting in and maintenance of red dots, and conclude with a preview of new products from Vortex. Takeaways Blacktail deer hunting holds a special place for Mark. The challenge of hunting blacktails adds to the experience. Red dots are becoming increasingly popular due to their ease of use. Durability is a key factor for red dots in hunting conditions. Red dots allow hunters to focus on the target rather than the sights. The Viper red dot is recommended for turkey hunting. Sighting in a red dot is similar to other optics but with some differences. Regular maintenance of red dots can ensure reliability. Vortex is introducing new products that enhance hunting experiences. Red dots provide a significant advantage for youth hunters. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In this episode of The Turkey Season, Paul sits down with Iowa photographer and farmer Clayton Worrell, better known online as Grizhawk—one of the most recognizable turkey photographers in the space today. Clayton's images aren't about grip-and-grins or highlight reels. They're about quiet moments, hard-earned light, and turkeys simply being turkeys. From frost on a gobbler's back at fly-down, to breath hanging in the cold air, to subtle steps and head tilts that most people miss, Clayton breaks down the patience, planning, and obsession behind capturing a single frame. The conversation wanders—in the best way—through farming, family, photography, hunting evolution, creative standards, social media fatigue, and why sometimes a photograph is just as satisfying as pulling the trigger. Clayton shares how he scouts locations like a hunter, stages photo setups days in advance, and often spends weeks chasing one image that may never happen. They also dig into: Why Clayton hunts less and photographs more as he gets older The frustration (and beauty) of spending days for one usable image Editing photos to feel like art, not just documentation The importance of high standards and refusing to put your name on work you don't believe in How the turkey community differs from whitetails—and why that matters His upcoming gallery-style booth at the NWTF Convention in Nashville This is a laid-back, honest conversation about creativity, patience, and what it really means to appreciate wild turkeys beyond the moment of the shot. If you've ever watched a bird through binoculars instead of shouldering a gun—or felt more pride in earning a moment than owning it—this one's for you. Learn more about your ad choices.
