Summary

This week we’re lucky to host Matt Rustad and Mike Stelzner from C&S Custom Calls. Mike is a world champion call maker and he shares about his beginnings in making calls and the path he’s taken to get to where he is. We also talk about Bruce, a turkey built for longevity and Matt and Mike’s recent fun going live on TikTok while turkey hunting. We ask Mike about the different awards and trophies he’s won over the years making custom calls and the difference between the mainstream call market and the custom call market. Mike also shares his thoughts on the change in pro staff numbers and why it isn’t as big of a thing anymore.
