  • Come along with Michael Waddell as he gives a masterclass in pre turkey season scouting and early season calling tips. Scouting Turkeys in the south before the season is a great way to familiarize yourself with the land and turkey habits. We even threw in a few early Season Calling Tips to try on a mouth call. Happy Spring!

    Waddy you are the best! I have loved your content since I was a kid (under 13) watching realtree road trips! Love the current content! Amazing to watch you evolve with the times and spread your experiences and knowledge to the public for free. ❤

    West Virginia is definitely tough but we don’t have any armadillos so dont have to worry about that hope y’all have a good year!!!

    I couldn't agree more. This past fall we had a tremendous mast crop. The turkeys are now congregating in the hardwoods because of the left over acorns. I cut one open a few days ago, and it was still good inside.

    Im hearing this year is going to have a lot of locust. Ive experienced turkeys feasting on locust before. I mean they were gorging on them. Best way I found to get near one was to spot and stalk and as they stepped over a hill was to rush in and pick one off. My calls would not get much response at all those years where locust were everywhere. What's your thoughts?

    Love your information big guy! I just wish here in PA it was what you said about public in the south where you’re at….up here-the focus is to line their own damn pockets and they don’t give a damn about quality management. It really is a shame what’s been going on in PA.

    The only difference is on private you can actually manage flocks as well as the property. Public land hunting is different. Definitely not as easy.
