Land & Legacy - Turkey Talk with Aaron Warbritton of THP May 25, 2021

Show notes

During this podcast, we are joined by Aaron Warbrittion of The Hunting Public. As a fellow passionate turkey hunter Aarons' experiences bring a unique point of view as a huge public land turkey hunter. We bring a new perspective to the turkey decline across the country. This is not just a Missouri problem as Aaron shares from his experience, he has witnessed this in Arkansas and many of the other Southeastern states. So the question becomes, what can a public and private landowner do collectively to address this problem? How can we come together to support habitat enhancement, fund research, and bring awareness to the issue. Join us for a collective assessment on the future of the wild turkey. We aren't singing the doom and gloom song, but we bringing awareness to the general decline of the turkey as a natural resource. Land & Legacy is Powered by Simplecast

Missouri Woods & Water - From Hunter To Land Manager With Land & Legacy May 25, 2021

Show notes

This week we get to talk with Adam Keith of Land & Legacy about becoming someone who wants to become a land manager. Adam talks about growing up and the different stages he went through on his way to being someone who is concerned with the land around him. As he grew he noticed some of the animals he loved hunting started to suffer and he started thinking of what he could do to help, thus starting that transition for him. We get into the turkey population issue a bit and go through our opinions as to why they might be suffering. Adam also talks about a few things someone who is new to land management can do to help their property for all types of wildlife. Product has been pushed over the past few decades to hunters when natural habitat manipulation is far more important. As Adam says on the show, the worst thing you can do is to not do anything at all at your property. Thank you to Adam for coming on with us and giving some awesome pointers!

Huntavore - Okayest Hunter with Greg Tubbs and Eric Clark May 24, 2021

Show notes

Greg Tubbs and Eric Clark are hosts of the Where2Hunt podcast and creators of Okayest Hunter. Okayest Hunter is an online brand that promotes celebrating every deer taken and promoting a positive message around hunting. A message I can get behind. As a self proclaimed “meat hunter” my trophy lies in the harvest, not necessarily what's on its head (not really a surprise). Having the opportunity to talk with these guys was a real pleasure, getting to know how these two utilized their venison differently. Greg, from an early age having the chance to learn how to break down an animal and fillet the fish, was around lots of ways to prepare the game. Eric, on the early stages of getting the most out of the game. Using a processor to get him not only his steaks and roasts, but enjoys the meat candy that comes along with it. The balance of these two shows that each hunter will have their unique approach. Greg saves money and gains options, but spends time and effort. While Eric saves time and effort, gets less options, but finds it worth the extra money to have that done. Each solution has its benefits. Wilde Spice Co.

DIY Sportsman - Late Season Turkey Hunting May 20, 2021

Show notes

For many people throughout the country, turkey seasons are winding down or have ended. But there are still plenty of opportunities in states like Wisconsin or Minnesota which still have ongoing seasons throughout the month of May. Turkey hunting can require a little shift in strategy this time of year. Birds have been pressured hard, but that same hunting pressure has largely relaxed by now. Hens are spending a lot more time on the nest, and the days are very long. That can give some great opportunity for those willing to put some time in the woods. This episode does a detailed breakdown of my wife Sam's successful public land hunt this past weekend, and I go into some of the methods and strategies that have proven to be successful on late season gobblers. Many of the questions you see from other turkey hunters revolve around "what type of calling". But that's only a very small, and less important in my opinion, piece of the puzzle.

Ohio Huntsman - National Park Bison Removal May 19, 2021

Show notes

This week on the show we discussed the upcoming bison hunt that is occurring on the north rim of Grand Canyon National Park. We discussed why they have decided to hold this "hunt" and why it is actually not being classified as a hunt because hunting is federally prohibited inside the boundaries of National Parks. We also reviewed why they are using this population control method versus relocation of individuals as used in the past. We also reviewed some of the requirements of individuals that are applying and what is expected if they are selected to participate. We then wrapped up the episode by discussing some common hunting terms we have seen or heard and what we thought they meant versus what they actually mean according to Jeff's research. We also covered how these terms or phrases often take on different meanings depending on geographical region. Ohio Huntsman is Powered by Simplecast
