This past April, I found myself on the top bench of a mountain trying to fill my last turkey tag. Other than opening weekend, the hunting conditions had been extremely tough. A combination of high-winds, thunderstorms, and hen-pecked gobblers made it seem almost impossible to close the deal. In addition, having to clock in at work during the week was also really cutting into my hunting schedule.
Every turkey hunter knows that when the days start to get longer and warmer then Turkey season is right around the corner. The worst thing that you can do is let it sneak up on you - unprepared. Nothing can ruin a hunt like getting to the woods, or field, late and without the right calls and equipment. Take a few minutes in the week prior to your season opener to inventory what you need for a successful hunt.

If there were major road systems marked in the skies for waterfowl, then flyways would be those routes. Used by migratory birds as a result of evolutionary history and genetic programming, and layered with some learned experiences, these routes vary from the simple and uncomplicated to the extremely complex. No two bird species follow the exact same path from beginning to end. And flyways can be greatly affected from year to year by weather conditions, predators, hunting pressure and available food and water sources. Too, the waterfowl populations that use these preferred migratory routes differ greatly in their numbers, travel speeds, travel distances, breeding ground origins and final destination points.
If there were a hat trick in elk hunting, then this would be it.

If you’re Ron Ten Berge, president and general manager of Knight & Hale, you start planning for the next opportunity to do it again.
