Iowa Sportsman - Turkey Hunting Grand Slam Mar 11, 2021

Show notes

On this episode of the Iowa Sportsman, Dan is joined by John Mulligan to talk about his North America Turkey Hunting Grand Slam from 2020. John kicks off the episode by explaining why he loves turkey hunting and why the launch of a new turkey call business led to him taking on the task of completing the Grand Slam. The North American Grand Slam consists of four different turkey species that include the Eastern, Merriam's, Rio Grande, and Osceola. This is an impressive task considering that he shot all of the birds with a bow and captured it all on film. The guys also discuss the strategy John used and if there were any similarities between the different species. Iowa Sportsman is Powered by Simplecast

Ohio Huntsman - Should We Be Using Lead? Mar 10, 2021

Show notes

This week on the show we discuss lead ammunition and if we as hunters should be transitioning to ammunition made from safer metals. We cover what impacts lead ammunition may have on the game we are harvesting and also various non-game species that come into contact with the lead. We also discussed differences in performance between lead and non-lead ammunition. Jason shared a story relating to the use of lead ammunition and having to remove components of the ammo from his meat. This leads to concerns of the meat becoming contaminated from prolonged exposure to lead and also concerns regarding the transmission of high lead levels in animals that scavenge the carcasses.

Land & Legacy - 190" Buck In Timber Country Mar 09, 2021

Show notes

This is the story of a giant buck on our home dirt and how he went from a mediocre 3.5 year old buck to a world class stud. Over the course of time many hunters have encounters of pictures on trail cameras of a large buck that haunts their dreams and is talked about for seasons to come. This is a podcast devoted to a buck we called "Donuts," and the story about his life and what we can all learn from his pattern, growth, and habitat management around his home range. Keep in mind this buck lived on a property that Chad and Adam have managed for years, and just two years before Donuts was 3.5 years old there wasn't a single buck living on the farm over 4.5 years old on a total of 900 acres. This isn't known to be a big buck area, this is a vast landscape of poor habitat and low quality deer hunting. The Keith brothers have set out to try and improve the habitat and see just what happens to the deer herd, so far it seems to be working! After a large timber harvest and prescribed fire the place is beginning to turn around, but with less the 25% of the overall work being done on the farm it's safe to say we're only at the beginning. Listen up to hear the story of a buck that should encourage us all to look past the food plots and begin to manage the entire landscape. #ForloveoftheLand Land & Legacy is Powered by Simplecast
