The Gould’s Turkey in Mexico and the Ocellated Turkey in Central America

For me, the Gould’s turkey is much like a Merriam’s turkey. My first trip to Mexico was many, many years ago. Back then, we couldn’t take a gun across the Mexican border. The guide service we were going to hunt with said, “Don’t worry about your gun. I've got you covered. I've got a gun you can use.

When You Think a Turkey Hunting Tactic Won’t Work – It May

Turkey hunting in the spring is not only my passion, it’s also my job. Each spring, I hunt with outdoor writers, store owners, dealers and distributors who buy and sell Quaker Boy Calls.

Why John Wade Hunts Midwestern Deer

I met a friend in college, Jacob Kraft,from Freeman, Missouri, right on the Kansas border. He invited me to come home with him and hunt Missouri and Kansas. I went home with him a few times, and we hunted the Sugar Creek Conservation Area in Missouri, which is public land, and we saw a ton of deer there. I’d see more deer in a week in Missouri than I’d see in the entire hunting season
