Tips I've Learned from Mentoring Turkey Hunters

With children, I've found that the children pay more attention to me and are more willing to do what I ask them to do than they are with their parents. My kids never listen to me, but they always listen to their uncle. So, I try to be like kids who hunt with their favorite uncle. The one thing I'm conscious of is allowing children to fail.

A Turkey Hunting Memory That Lasts for Two Lifetimes

I try to create hunting memories that will last a lifetime. If I'm successful, that memory will last for two lifetimes. Here’s what I mean. If I guide a person to the first turkey he or she ever has taken, or if I guide a person to his first deer, I’ll remember that hunt for my lifetime, and that person will remember that hunt throughout his lifetime. So, even though I only squeezed the trigger

Eight Trophy Gobblers in Two Years

I’ve mentioned earlier this week that one of the biggest reasons most turkey hunters don’t teach others to hunt turkeys is that they're afraid the people they’ve taught how to turkey hunt will go onto that same property and try to take the same turkey they’ve planned to take. However, this is the reason I hunt public lands, primarily state Wildlife Management Areas (WMAs).

3 Key Tips for Taking on Tom

There are so many unpredictable details that can make harvesting a springtime tom either easier or more difficult. We have to deal with weather, time of the season, hunting pressure and natural turkey biology just to name a few. While there are numerous important points that can mean the difference between an unused tag and a 25-pounder hanging on a limb by its spurs, the following three subjects are among the most vital.

I Teach and Guide Turkey Hunters - Here’s Why

I'm a project supervisor for a construction company. My company is very understanding when I need to take off to go and teach.

Passing on a Lifetime of Hunting Turkeys with Pat Reeve

I remember the first time I went hunting for spring turkeys. I was walking around in the woods during the spring with a gun in my hand, and it felt like I was doing something illegal. Because up until that time, when deer season was over, hunting season ended. So, even though I knew I was legally hunting, because I never had been able to hunt in the spring before, I kind of felt like

Hunting Minnesota’s May Gobblers with Pat Reeve

By the end of May, the woods will have greened-up. I believe that the turkeys are easier to hunt in May, because there's more foliage, leaves and bushes to hide behind. By the end of the season, most of the gobblers have bred most of the hens, but the gobblers are still searching for the last of the hens to breed, something that makes them easy to call. This is my favorite time to hunt,

Most turkey hunters can quickly recall where their biggest or best bird was killed and all the details that made the hunt.
