10m
In this episode of Call the Wild by Slayer Calls, two experienced hunters, Cody and the host, share their insights on hunting wild turkeys in different terrains across the United States. Cody reflects on his experiences hunting in northern and southern Idaho, where he learned to utilize a variety of topographies, from thick timber and canyons to river bottoms and clear cuts. The host, on the other hand, discusses hunting in the hardwood forests of the Southeast, focusing on how turkeys prefer to roost and move in open, mature hardwoods. As they compare their strategies, they emphasize the importance of understanding the terrain and learning from each other’s approaches. They share tips for both new and experienced hunters, such as being aggressive and moving quickly on birds in the West or patiently hunting specific pockets of birds in the East. The conversation also highlights how turkeys' behavior varies by region, with advice on when to hunt, including the advantages of hunting later in the day when turkeys are more likely to be active. Throughout the episode, the hunters stress the value of sharing knowledge, continuing to learn from each experience, and most importantly, enjoying the hunt.
