How to Keep Hens in the Decoys While You’re Waiting on a Tom
Tony J. Peterson
Mar 16, 2024
One of the things that bowhunting turkeys taught me is that if you scout out a decent spot and are patient, you’ll have plenty of birds mix in with your decoys. The amount of hens I started calling in when the option to run and gun was off the table was eye-opening. It changed how I hunt spring...

Jani's Best Tips for Hunting Western Turkeys
Janis Putelis
Mar 15, 2024
Hunting turkeys out west is a blast. I cut my teeth hunting turkeys in Nebraska and have honed my western turkey hunting tactics in Montana over the last ten years. The Merriam’s and Rios that inhabit these landscapes are not that different from their Eastern cousins. Sure, there are nuanced...

How To Set Up For Turkeys In The Woods
Tony J. Peterson
Mar 14, 2024
Almost all hunters lean toward sitting on openings and other areas with solid sight lines. Whitetail hunters do this. Western hunters do, too, as they inevitably gravitate toward meadows and high-country basins with prime views. It’s in our nature to seek out spots that provide visibility, which is...

Three Ways You Can Help with Wild Turkey Conservation
Adam Moore
Mar 13, 2024
Hunters like to throw around the word “conservation” or refer to themselves as “conservationists.” It’s great to recognize the role that hunting plays in the conservation of wildlife and wildlife habitat, but there’s a lot more to it than filling tags. It’s sort of like calling yourself a babysitter...

Tony J. Peterson
Mar 12, 2024

There have been many highlights, including a total of seven toms and jakes flopping their way to the great strutting grounds in the sky. There have also been plenty of lowlights, which, as most hunters know, teach...
