Late Season Turkey Hunting

For many people throughout the country, turkey seasons are winding down or have ended. But there are still plenty of opportunities in states like Wisconsin or Minnesota which still have ongoing seasons throughout the month of May. Turkey hunting can require a little shift in strategy this time of year. Birds have been pressured hard, but that same hunting pressure has largely relaxed by now. Hens are spending a lot more time on the nest, and the days are very long. That can give some great opportunity for those willing to put some time in the woods.

This episode does a detailed breakdown of my wife Sam's successful public land hunt this past weekend, and I go into some of the methods and strategies that have proven to be successful on late season gobblers. Many of the questions you see from other turkey hunters revolve around "what type of calling". But that's only a very small, and less important in my opinion, piece of the puzzle.
