Jeez Ted, you need new camouflage pants before your gobbler falls out! Lol lol lol!
His noodle 😂
Or his giblets 😂
To funny boys
You mean his waddles?
Hahaha ha that right there is to funny
I really like when you all interact with turkey biologists, we get the benefits of the conversation and the facts. Thank you for that. And of course we are getting valuable information watching you hunt and then explain to us what and why it worked or didn't. 71 years old and this old dog is learning new tricks.
Scratching worked well for us in 2023! Brought two separate toms in and we tagged out with 2 birds by 10 am on opening day in MN!
A few years ago I found 3 dead long beards in a pile during deer season not far from the gut pit where we disposed of our deer carcasses. I showed the wildlife biologist that managed our property and he determined they had gorged themselves with maggots and got botchulism which killed them. From then on we made sure to lime our deer carcasses then bury them at the end of the season. I'm sure this kills many more turkeys than we realize.
Great job on the conservation segment at the end. You guys, the biologists and Vet did a great job explaining everything and didn’t dumb it down too much. When you give that much time to explain a complicated subject you are doing a great service to the public! Keep doing these segments and consider breaking them out into their own videos if you think that will increase its reach. It could prove helpful for non-hunters or anti hunters to see content like this. Thank you!
THANK YOU for the DNR part of this video. As an Iowa turkey hunter I've had dozens of conversations with other hunters, and we were convinced they gave up on our turkey decline and just focused on our deer. You guys are truly amazing.
Awesome portion with the DNR and learning about what they are doing and studying . Really appreciate them and thp for doing a segment highlighting their work
Great harvest guys, way to draw them in. Good looking bird Ted. Love the explanation about the turkey research and what theyre doing. Love what ya'll are doing ❤️
I love it when you share the research stuff. I wish RUclips existed back in the day when I was super active with NWTF and research so I could have been sharing then. I got excited hearing all the details of the 10 year study and oh…great hunt guys congrats Ted! I’m excited to hunt gobblers in Iowa next year as I just moved there.
Next year you guys need to get to northern MI. I'm on a 8 year streak of tagging out on public with quite honestly pretty minimal scouting. I got two friends of mine into turkey hunting this year as well and we managed to get them two nice toms as well. I'm not sure why, but the turkey hunting here is pretty underrated.
Congrats Ted and Greg. I just turned 70 years old today and have learned quite a bit from you whippersnappers. Keep fighting the good fight. Love watching you all.
So much behind the scenes work from biologists, it great to hear some of what they're doing for the better of all our natural resources 👍👍
Great info at end of video! I hope they are able to learn a lot and make a difference not just in Iowa but all states with turkeys!!
I was told in a class that if you can manage for quail, everything will benefit as well. Need to get rid of farming from fence to fence.
Great conversation with the researchers. They seem really passionate about the work.
Love the conservation piece at the end. Would like to see more from around the country as many states are starting to really hammer down on habitat enhancement. Great video!
Seen the vids about scratching the leaves, tried and was able to harvest a gobbler with this tip, even got my dad a gobbler because of leave scratching.
Awesome information guys, sure glad to have you all on team
Congratulations Ted! Happy for you buddy 🦃
I agree with this. I got a big Tom yesterday in Wisconsin I am ridge top of oaks. Gentle calls and leaf scratching brought him in on a string.
Great hunt Ted and Greg, Congrats. I really enjoyed the information shared from the Iowa DNR staff, awesome stuff - keep up the good work!
Got many white tails with this technique, some doe bleats and leaf scratching in the dark.... has led to many tags being filled first minute of legal shooting time. 😎
That’s why we were in Indiana last week, they had cicadas 2 years ago, turkeys everywhere!
Horizontal leaf scratchin!
I’m really glad that you talked to biologists for the Midwest. I’m from illinois and it’s not very often you hear about any research being done up here. Everything you hear about is always in the south
Another great THP video, thanks!
I was shaking! 🎉.
Great hunt guys! Great information on turkey’s.
Good job Ted. Love the dnr footage. Everyone looks forward to Ted miller.
Another great vid. thanks for all the effort.
I pulled the Ted out this morning n put round hat on and darn if I didn’t misss !!!! Long beard came in I let it get way close like under 10 yards n missed !! Aw it made me sick 🤢
This spring was my first turkey season and my mouth calling sucks… killed my first Tom yesterday from 2 yelps and 15 mins of scratching :). He had 4 beards
I love my Woodhaven crystal hunting public. It works great during mid morning I wanted to post a photo of my Arkansas bird with my hunting public call on it but I can’t figure it out.
Ted's my favorite!
I don't even hunt turkeys, just watch you all do it, but an extremely interesting episode you guys
Love the videos guys got to meet some of yall at the NWTF this year but unfortunately I broke my leg second day of Alabama season while hunting, I got the bird but the hill side got me so to say I have lived this season through yalls videos would be an understatement 😅 keep Killen em
Hopefully when these studies are over they take the same money to pay people to trap with fur being worthless no one traps anymore that would help so much!
A bald eagle and hawk season would help. The amount of guys posting picks of them attacking decoys is insane.
That's all I've managed to call in this year, predator birds. Haven't got one single gobble this year.
I scratch. Our Oceolas shut up when they hit the ground due to high numbers of predators. They are chatty kathy on the roost. I rarely call once they fly down. They know exactly where your call came from. The mock scratching and a little contentment purr and they will come........🦍🦃🇺🇸🇺🇸🍗🍗
Let me know if you need help trapping them out
Looks like it is time for Ted to get a new pair of camo pants, haha.
Great video guys, good info on the research......btw Ted, u could use some new pants....😂
Would love to see a study done in Alabama like this
It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to realize that the increased predators such as hawks, owls, eagles, coyote, fox, bobcats and fishers are knocking the shit out of turkey populations along with disease and cold wet weather in the hatching season. Our region here in mid-central Pa has been decimated and may never recover.
Far upstate NY here... 10 years ago it was child's play to get into flocks of mature birds 20+ strong. Today you don't see any in the fields, I've got 200 miles on my boots this spring and literally have not got a single gobble. When I do see a bird it's been a lone hen, 2 on a great day. It's a major struggle , and my poor wife has been tagging along this year, all I can do for her is tell stories of the "good old days" (does 10 years ago count?). Deer numbers aren't doing much better. An evening drive 10 years ago we'd see 3-400 deer on an hour joyride late afternoon day before opening morning. Today.... you'll see 10. Meanwhile NY State Department of Conservation acts as though nothing is going on. Personally, I feel the cold/warm/cold/warm winters we get now creates a base layer of ice on the forest floors, browsing animals simply aren't getting the food to fuel the work it takes to get that fuel. Compounded by predators that can navigate icy terrain much easier than prey animals. Somebody needs to say something and nobody seems to want to.
Forgot to mention... yes I do see plenty of birds while turkey hunting recent years... vultures, hawks, eagles, etc..... that's it.
Ted
You use the same rubber sling I do. ❤ it.
Leave those turkeys alone 😂
Buy from frozen section like the rest of us 😁😂
Tedinator strikes again!
Love seeing what the DNR is doing in Iowa not sure if New York is following suit…can only hope so.
One hen decoy. Just one would’ve brought them up the first time
I have been thinking maybe for a couple of years we only get one bird for the season. Non-resident will go into a lottery or one bird. I am willing to pay the same price for a couple years for one bird. Possibly shutting down the fall hunt for one year or two years to help the cause.
You know Iowa probably has a really high predation rate on turkeys, take more predators and put chufa plots on state land,
Average harvest reports in Iowa are around 12k birds/year for the last 15 years. A lot of surrounding states are cutting out fall seasons and rolling back the number of tags a hunter can get in the spring. Should we as hunters take it upon ourselves to only harvest one bird when we're allowed two? I feel it will help the issue of less birds, but maybe mask the real issues of declining bird populations.
In the 1980's predator trapping was profitable and predator numbers were low, today no one is trapping. Skunks, opossum, raccoon, fox, bobcat, coyote, hawks, owls, mink, weasel, rats, etc. Numbers are at all time high! They all have to eat.
Boom!
There is an over population of raccoon and coyotes in my area, Southern Iowa and less Turkeys also seeing alot more Bobcat.
Lettin the Tristar bark!
I think it's a mossberg sa 20
Evolution of upland birds needed forest to turn over. Wind storms and fires created habitat at different stages, ages, and areas. Diversity is key. Destruction is necessary.
You'll are early tonight ,thanks ted.
No fundraiser for turkey research this year? I'm in if you do
Love the video guys! But where is Zach? Haven't seen him in any videos this year
Are you guys gonna try to get the super slam?
Nice shot Ted! Where are all the haters?
Really curious what gun Ted is shooting ??
I’m still not convinced that Ted isn’t Teds illegitimate son 😂especially with them both in frame talking like that. Lol
Coyotes are killing all of our turkeys around here in southeast Michigan, besides me of course
Does anyone know what gun they use ?
Anybody know what bird is whistling at 1:40. I hear and see them where I hunt but no clue what it is.
A whippoorwill
Missing old Zach this season!
How did Ted Miller come along years ago? Did y’all meet up at a convention or ?
Lets go
I killed a bird in Nebraska that had been banned in Iowa several years ago. It flew across the Missouri River ! That flight cost him his life 😂
Populations in the mid west declined when we started seeing black flies in places where they hadn’t been seen previously. Coincidence?
Where's Zach?
How come we never see Zach turkey hunting?
U dudes are awesome if ur in ohio ever hit me up got some good public patches
Anyone that calls them patches is surely a freak?
New york is hurting bad. We need help
??
Great video-Iowa research is exciting! Will there be a fundraiser to support turkey research this year?
@@MisterTwister88 there's no turkey
Why would Ted dye his hair black?
Great hunt, congrats! I like how you guys moved on these birds, to put distance from you and other hunter. I do not want to get into calling contests, makes me uncomfortable.
Is Zach still with THP? Haven’t seen him this year
He has surgery and has not been out on the turkey tour. He has been hosting the Podcast though.
@@mattholden5521 oh good! Glad he is still with them
What ever happened to Zac?
Way to go Ted, shot him in lower neck and not over it's head, I've pulled over there head in the past
