Summary

In this episode we are joined by our friend Kyle Sides, who has been tagging along with us on some hunts after he tagged out in Alabama earlier this season! Kyle is younger than a lot of guys we interview on turkey hunting, but he is a true woodsman and is skilled at turkey hunting well beyond his years. We talk about Kyle's fast and aggressive hunting style, how to get in a bird's bubble to make him callable, and how these tactics paid off for Jacob with his 2nd public land longbeard of the season here in Alabama! Give Kyle a call for any of your land buying and selling needs - https://www.mossyoakproperties.com/agent/kyle-sides/?gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=1554312916&gbraid=0AAAAADQuGUod6HkvCTxQS-1oAAAq6xRB2&gclid=Cj0KCQjw2MbPBhCSARIsAP3jP9zojt2IUdSFdJ-drqds5OEqZ9p4foakcu43x8d8Oq0vLcsXlAprFcYaAgMOEALw_wcB Got a question for the show?
