Mountain Turkey Hunt with Mark Hall - Part Two
Part two of our great Merriam's Turkey hunt in the East Kootenays of British Columbia with Mark Hall.
We could see them in the darkness in their roost trees on multiple days...but could we get close enough to get set up for a shot? Is there a proper way to hunt these birds? We chat about some hunting ethics when it comes to turkey hunting and we also arrive at some realizations about the timing of this particular hunt.
We had a long power outage here at the farm today which delayed the release of this episode. Here is the episode on a Wednesday...late, but Wednesday nonetheless.
I hope you'll join Mark and me in the wall tent at 4 am and follow us up onto the fir and pine ridges of the Rocky Mountains as we get set up to call. We're hunting mountain turkeys!
