You are going to learn a lot of tips and tactics about turkey hunting in this episode. We sit down with Duke Turnage and Jeff Scott from Woodhaven Custom Calls and talk turkey tactics from start to finish. Duke has been chasing turkeys for over 50 years and Jeff about 30 years.This is a combination of knowledge that you cannot just tap into. These guys have seen it all and Mario guides you through some scenario’s you might run into in turkey hunting this spring. Lots of great stuff including a few laughs to keep it fun.

If you have joined the heated conversation of is the amount of Flooded Corn ponds holding up all the ducks north of us, all the guys with properties and money and the outfitter in Missouri and all that other talk. We are here to give you straight facts, not hearsay or some report from someone in muck boots that hunts twice a year, and he has not shot anything. We have over 150 years of combined hunting experience on this panel of guests including the lynch pin that ties all of it together. Bobby Digital is his name and he is bringing facts to the discussion. Join us and maybe you will learn something or maybe not. Worth a shot.

Mario talks with a true goose killer, Missouri's own Byron Hahn about late season goose tactics. He specializes in shooting tons of honkers over water, whether it is frozen or open. They keep the generator and ice ripper companies in business with several going on different properties. Somehow all the talk about late season geese sends Mario and Byron down the rabbit hole of the whole flooded corn controversy and end up spiraling out of control. Hope you enjoy it.

Steve and Mario also ask some wild questions about being in the Show and standing on the mound pitching in the major leagues.

All choke tubes are the same aren’t they? Hell no they are not! This episode we dig deep in the science of shot and talk Patternmaster tubes, not choke tubes as that is different. Tune it to find out why. If you have questions like; What is a wad stripper and what does it do?, what is your shot string?, what is constriction?, what do you mean all choke tubes are not the same. What you are going to learn on this podcast is some science and technology about your gun and ammo. We talk to Jason Copestick who is the new owner of Patternmaster. Jason worked in sales for them for years and had the opportunity recently to buy the company. Mario on the other hand has been shooting a Patternmaster tube for way too long and knows the ins and outs of the tubes as he also sold them when he worked for a different company years ago. We will walk you through it all. To put it in plain english… If you want less cripples and have more clean kills then this is the podcast for you.

What you are going to get out of this podcast is where the coolest birds are to chase in the world. Is it Sweden and the Baltic sea for Eurasian Wigeon, Greenland for King Eiders or New Zealand for Paradise Shell Ducks. Mario is joined by “THE VIKING” Kjartan Lorange from Iceland and Juho Ristikankare from Finland. Mario has hunted with both of them all over the world and between them they have hunted about 20 different countries. We talk about travel destinations and waterfowl bucket list trips. Juho shared his love for chasing anything in the Arctic regions of the world while Kjartantalked about Alaska, and Mario shared stories about hunting in Canada, Iceland and Sweden. Kjartan voted for Eisenberg Lagoon in Alaska as his number one location to go and hunt while Juho Talked about King Eiders in Alaska or Greenland. Mario was torn on a few like New Zealand, or theBaltic Sea. The Viking’s bucket list bird is Sandhill cranes in Canada and the unique challenges of hunting these prehistoric birds. Juho is fixated on getting a mature mountable Pintail Drake, while Mario wants a Barnacle Goose or a Paradise Duck pair to put on his wall.https://linktr.ee/finalapproachhttps://fabrand.com/#finalapproach #fabrand #duckhunting #goosehunting #hunting #waterfowlhunting #turkeyhunting #outdoors #outdoorsman
