Summary

One of the most common requested topics that we get is how to manage a property for turkeys. What can you practically do to make a place hold more turkeys, to have better turkey hunting opportunities? I sat down with Brad Farris and Chipper Gibbes who both have had endless amounts of first-hand experience with this very subject. We cover everything from habitat improvement, food plot planting, hunting practices, and much more. This podcast is applicable to the hunter that owns or leases a small piece of ground, all the way to someone who may own thousands of acres. No matter how much property you have or have access to, there are things you can do to make it better for wild turkeys.

Welcome to another episode of the Speak the Language podcast. We are here today. I like

this set in that we're in because most of the time, the past couple that I've done,

0:11.1

I was kind of sitting in the office, but this is different. We're on the porch of, you

0:19.0

say where we are, Chipper. We're on the porch of HD Gibbs and so on.

0:22.6

properties and then he, this is a family store that his dad turned into a

0:35.3

steakhouse and it's really, it arguably may be one of the most popular, if not the

0:40.9

most popular steakhouse in central Mississippi without a doubt. I helped him

0:45.2

he, I helped him Saturday night and I said, sure, I helped you. I didn't know I was

0:50.2

going to mean him, we're going to cook 354 steaks Saturday night. It's a good

0:56.6

steak. Yeah, but so okay, make sure I have a bad habit of like jumping right into

1:02.2

the guts of the conversation without stating why we're here what we're doing,

1:05.2

but I tracked down both Brad and Chipper today because right before we started

1:10.1

doing turkey episodes, I always like to do structure these around the kind of

1:14.4

stuff that the listeners want to hear and we had a really high frequency of

1:19.6

questions or topics in and they want us to cover that had to do with managing

1:24.0

land for turkeys. If I have land, what kind of things can I plant to get, you

1:28.5

know, to, to better my turkey population? If I, what if I'm buying a farm and want

1:34.4

to make it more centralized around having good turkey hunting? And so I

1:38.5
