In this episode of the Antler Up Podcast, I sit down to unpack an unforgettable turkey season filled with early mornings, missed opportunities, and memorable highs. From dealing with travel logistics and licensing hiccups to embracing the physical and mental grind of multi-state hunts, this episode dives deep into the real, unfiltered experiences that define spring turkey season. We discuss the challenges of hunting in the Pacific Northwest, the importance of scouting, and why understanding bird behavior is crucial when you're chasing gobbles in unfamiliar terrain. Beyond the hunt itself, we talk about gear setups like the M2 Turkey Vest, prepping for taxidermy, and why tailgate burgers taste best after a hard-earned success. There’s also a strong focus on mental toughness, ethical hunting, and learning from mistakes—because every hunt, win or lose, is a chance to grow. Whether you’re chasing your first bird or your Grand Slam, this episode is a reminder that the best part of hunting is often the journey, the stories, and the people you share them with! So, grab your gear, sit back, and join us on this episode as we Antler Up with Jim, Tim & Josh!
