  • 778 - What 65+ Years Of Turkey Hunting Teaches You | Henry Ott

    778 - What 65+ Years Of Turkey Hunting Teaches You | Henry Ott
    2026/03/30
    Henry Ott is a third-generation turkey hunter from South Alabama with over 60 years of experience in the woods. He learned from his father and grandfather—long before modern gear, when success depended on woodsmanship, patience, and understanding turkeys at a deeper level. Over decades of hunting the same country, Henry noticed something most hunters overlook: Gobblers aren’t random. They run a route. And if you’re not set up on it… you’re already too late. In this episode, Henry breaks down how turkeys actually move, how hens dictate everything a gobbler does, and why positioning—not calling—is what consistently kills birds. This is old-school knowledge built from a lifetime of watching turkeys in big timber, long before today’s tactics took over. If you’ve ever had a gobbler hang up, disappear, or just not do what he “should” do… this will change how you think about turkey hunting. In this episode: • Why gobblers follow a route instead of moving randomly • How hens control gobbler movement throughout the day • The biggest setup mistake most hunters make • Why chasing gobblers almost always backfires • How to get ahead of a gobbler instead of behind him • Lessons learned from 60+ years of turkey hunting Got a question for the show?

    775 - How to HIDE THE HEN - The Setup That Changes Everything with Scott Ellis | THROWBACK
    2026/03/19
    Turkey season is here, and we're pulling one out of the vault for this week's throwback Thursday episode. Scott Ellis joins us for one of the most tactical turkey hunting conversations we've ever had on the show. Scott breaks down his signature "hide the hen" setup strategy — the idea that where you sit when you call matters just as much as how you call. If a gobbler can look over and confirm no hen is standing there, he's gone. Scott walks through exactly how to use terrain features like elevation changes, bends in roads, field edges, and thickets to get birds into gun range before they ever see you. Beyond the setup, Scott covers how to handle pressured and non-callable birds, how to read a gobbler's behavior and adjust your aggression level on the fly, afternoon hunting tactics, calling volume based on pressure and weather, and how to pick which bird to target when multiple toms are on the roost. If you're headed to the woods this season, this one is worth the listen. Got a question for the show?

  • 774 - Most Turkey Hunters are Missing This Skill | Lamar Williams

    774 - Most Turkey Hunters are Missing This Skill | Lamar Williams
    2026/03/16
    For decades, Lamar Williams has been quietly shaping the world of custom turkey calls. But outside of tight circles of call makers and serious turkey hunters, most people have never heard his story. Lamar started chasing turkeys in the 1960s — long before turkey hunting exploded in popularity. Over the years he became a respected custom call maker, building calls that serious hunters seek out across the country. But if you expect this conversation to be about gear… you’re going to be surprised. According to Lamar, buying more calls won’t make you a better turkey hunter. What actually matters is something most modern hunters overlook. Woodsmanship. In this episode, Lamar shares lessons learned from over 50 years of hunting wild turkeys, including how fall hunting teaches you more about turkey behavior than most hunters ever learn, why gobblers often won’t come back when you call, and the skills that separate consistently successful hunters from everyone else. If you want to understand turkeys — not just call at them — this conversation is packed with hard-earned wisdom. In this episode we discuss: • Why woodsmanship matters more than turkey calls • Lessons from fall turkey hunting • Why gobblers often won’t come back when you call • How to understand turkey travel patterns and terrain • The story behind Lamar’s custom turkey calls • Why experience in the woods still beats gadgets This episode is a masterclass in old-school turkey hunting knowledge. If you enjoy learning from hunters who have spent a lifetime in the woods, you’ll love this one. Got a question for the show?
