Episode 6
Scout with your ears before opening day
The primary focus of this episode is to provide essential insights for beginner and intermediate hunters, particularly in preparation for the upcoming hunting season. We emphasize the significance of employing roost listening techniques, which can yield valuable information surpassing that of conventional maps. It is imperative to arrive at the hunting location during the critical times of first light or last light in the week preceding the opener. During this period, we advocate for remaining still and attuned to the natural sounds of the environment, such as gobbles, fly downs, and hen talk. By marking the roosting locations on one’s mobile device, we can effectively strategize for the following day’s endeavor, ensuring a more fruitful hunting experience.
