An Alabama Opening Day Screw Up
This week, Cameron and Andy share a turkey hunt from opening day of Alabama's 2020 turkey season. We believe there is just as much to learn, if not more, from a hunt gone wrong as there is from a successful hunt. Today, we have one gone wrong for you.
In this hunt, Andy is joined by his friend, Todd, and Todd's son, Pow. They visit Andy's hunting club in central Alabama, and find a lonely tom a couple of hours after daylight.
Listen in to this week's hunt to hear about their setup and what went wrong during the hunt.

292P - Government and Wild Turkeys with Joel Pedersen

Government and Wild Turkeys
There are many different variables that go into whether or not you have a successful season in the woods hunting wild turkeys. Weather, calling skills, woodsmanship, proper setup, knowing when to move and when to sit still are all important factors in determining our success. But, how often do you think about the fact that if we didn't have wild turkeys your turkey hunting season would be a big failure?
Our federal government as well as our state governments are very involved in managing our wild turkey habitat and the populations of turkeys across the country. There really is a lot of time, energy, and money that goes into managing the habitat and population, but did you know that there is also a lot of time, energy, and money that goes into lobbying our elected federal officials to make sure that they understand how important wild turkeys are to our federal lands and those of us who hunt them?
This week, Cameron and I have Joel Pedersen who is the Director of Government Affairs with the NWTF on the show with us to talk about some of the finer points of working with government officials in order to promote the policies that help to promote our wild turkey populations.
Listen in this week to hear all about government and wild turkeys.

Cameron's Second Tennessee Turkey
This week, Cameron and I share the audio of the hunt from his second turkey in Tennessee.

Another Georgia Public Land Turkey Hunt
This week, Cameron and I share an early season hunt on public land in Georgia where we try to get my friend and fellow Super Slam chaser, Chip, a Georgia turkey.
After being all around a flock of turkeys for the majority of the morning, the hunt got pretty hairy right around midday. There was a missed opportunity, some whisper yelling, and some frustration in this hunt.
It really is a good one, and I'm sure you don't want to miss it. Listen in!
