  • Great podcast

    I really enjoyed this podcast. First off I appreciate that there is no foul language. If I am afraid that the podcast will use foul language then I won’t listen to it because if I can’t listen with my little girl in the car then I don’t need it. Secondly, I like that Paul isn’t one of those guys that thinks they know everything and over talks the guest. He asks great questions then listens and lets the guest open up and take it where they want. Great job. My favorite turkey hunting podcast.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Hitting The Road For Turkey Hunting
Q: Talk to us a little bit about the last 10 years of turkey hunting up to now in the state of Kentucky.
Scott Cronin describes a decade of regional variability with overall turkey numbers fluctuating, pockets impacted by cicadas and habitat changes, improved body condition due to cicadas, and ongoing regulatory considerations, while noting shifts in hunting pressure, youth participation, and the NWTF convention's growth.
Archery Grand Slam & Custom Calls
Q: How did you decide to pursue a single-season archery Grand Slam, and what were the biggest hurdles?
The drive came from wanting a new challenge and to promote my Bourbon Barrel Calls; the biggest hurdles were travel during COVID restrictions and getting states to allow non-resident hunting, which forced a pivot to do Florida, Texas, the Black Hills, then back to Iowa for the final Eastern, all within a tight window.
Archery Grand Slam & Custom Calls
Q: What sparked your interest in archery and moving from shotgun turkey hunting to bow hunting?
I had always shot guns in the police career, but archery gave me a new challenge and a way to keep improving my shooting, which naturally aligned with my hunting goals and filming hunts.
Scott Ellis: Next Level Turkey Calling
Q: What advice do you have for hunters who think they are calling too much?
Scott suggested that if a hunter feels they are calling too much, they likely are, and emphasized the importance of keeping calls subtle and strategic.
Scott Ellis: Next Level Turkey Calling
Q: How do you handle situations when a gobbler has hens?
Scott advised starting with soft calls and not being aggressive at first, escalating only if necessary to engage the hens and get the gobbler's attention.
