    787 - How to Know When to Hunt Aggressive with Kyle Sides
    2026/04/30
    In this episode we are joined by our friend Kyle Sides, who has been tagging along with us on some hunts after he tagged out in Alabama earlier this season! Kyle is younger than a lot of guys we interview on turkey hunting, but he is a true woodsman and is skilled at turkey hunting well beyond his years. We talk about Kyle's fast and aggressive hunting style, how to get in a bird's bubble to make him callable, and how these tactics paid off for Jacob with his 2nd public land longbeard of the season here in Alabama! Give Kyle a call for any of your land buying and selling needs - https://www.mossyoakproperties.com/agent/kyle-sides/?gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=1554312916&gbraid=0AAAAADQuGUod6HkvCTxQS-1oAAAq6xRB2&gclid=Cj0KCQjw2MbPBhCSARIsAP3jP9zojt2IUdSFdJ-drqds5OEqZ9p4foakcu43x8d8Oq0vLcsXlAprFcYaAgMOEALw_wcB Got a question for the show?

    786 - How to Find the Chink in a Gobblers Armor with Mike Pentecost
    2026/04/27
    In this episode, we break down the idea that every gobbler has a short window—sometimes just 3 days—where he can be called, worked, and tagged. If you don’t recognize it, you’ll hunt right through it and never know he was beatable. We cover how to identify that window, what changes in a gobbler’s behavior, and the mistakes that keep hunters from capitalizing on it. From henned-up birds to late-season shifts, this episode is about understanding when the odds finally swing in your favor—and being ready when they do. Topics discussed: The “3-day window” when a gobbler is killable How to recognize when a bird becomes vulnerable Common mistakes that cause hunters to miss their opportunity Calling strategies when gobblers are with hens Why calling to the gobbler isn’t always the right move Late-season behavior and how it changes your approach Knowing when to stay, move, or back out The mindset shift that leads to more consistent success Got a question for the show?

    784 - 84 Years Old, 65+ Years of Turkey Hunting...The Life of Crawford Bush
    2026/04/20
    84 years old. 68 years chasing turkeys. Crawford Bush grew up in a different era of hunting—before leases, before technology, before modern tactics.

    780 - Inside $20M Of Turkey Research (What Hunters Are Missing) | Dr. Patrick Wightman
    2026/04/06
    In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Patrick Wightman, National Director of Research for the NWTF, to break down what the latest research is revealing about wild turkeys—and what it means for hunters. From large-scale population trends to on-the-ground behavior, this conversation covers some of the most important (and often misunderstood) findings shaping the future of turkey hunting. In this episode, we cover: What $20M+ in turkey research is uncovering across the country Why turkey populations are declining—and the biggest factor driving it What happens after you leave a gobbler (and why patience matters more than you think) The truth about harvest rates and how hunting actually impacts populations How hunting pressure affects gobbling activity throughout the season The role of early successional habitat—and why it’s critical for brood survival What GPS and field studies are revealing about turkey movement and behavior Differences between “homebody” gobblers vs roaming birds How land management practices directly impact turkey numbers What hunters and landowners can do right now to improve habitat and success If you’re serious about understanding turkeys at a deeper level—and becoming a more effective hunter—this episode is packed with insight you won’t hear anywhere else.
