Youth Turkey Season 2015 (VIDEO)
I say it at least once every year, “You just can’t beat spring turkey season!”! This is especially true when it involves getting a youth a bird, and most exciting when that youth happens to be one of your own. We’ve had some good luck over the last two years. It’s extra special to share […]
Turkey’s Down! (Video)
Welcome to the 2014 spring turkey season! I hope you’ve had as much fun as I have so far! It has been an exciting season starting back in the youth season when my son harvested his first bird. This was a well-deserved bird as we had to work the bird for an hour and a […]

Gobbler Down
2013 Spring Turkey Season I had a great turkey season opener this year and was thankful to do it with my 5yr old at my side! Our first set didn’t pan out so we picked up and moved to the other end of the property at about 7:30. We slowly moved down a field edge […]
Turkey #2 for 2012
April 24th was going to be a good day. I had hunted this particular property twice and both times I’d heard a big Tom cutting loose from this one patch of timber at the southeast corner of the property. My good friend Brad had just shot his bird the day before and decided to come […]
Great Hunt with Dad
Saturday April the 27th was a great day to be in the turkey woods. It started being pretty dead at the 1st property even though the weather was perfect. For whatever reason the birds there wouldn’t talk and I didn’t have much time this morning so we moved on. As we passed by a property […]
Big Tom Down on Video (well mostly on video ;-)
A good friend of mine, Brandon got his first Tom Saturday, April 21, 2012. It was a fun filled hunt filled with many twists and turns. We had a “pack” of jakes that kept running our Tom around and almost ruined our hunt, but in the end he was able to get it too close […]
First 2012 Tom Down
Had an excellent hunt this morning down in SW Missouri! The birds were making up for the dead Monday in my area by gobbling their heads off! The first bird I went after flew off the roost landing about 150 yards out in the middle of a pasture. He was very content to gobble all […]
Blood Pressure Rising
If this doesn’t get your blood pumping I don’t know what will!! Did a little scouting with the kiddos the other morning on a few properties I hunt on and was pleasantly surprised. We’ve got a week and a half before youth season and I’m chomping at the bit. What a great way to enjoy […]
Youth Hunters
Over the last few years I have had the priviledge to take part in a local NWTF Chapter youth hunt. The chapter does a great job of working to get youth out into the woods and intense focus is put on selecting great land to up the percentage of success among the hunters. I have […]
