About this episode

Nate and Trav discuss the excitement of turkey season in Michigan, sharing memorable hunting stories and the anticipation of spring.

Spring is creeping back into the Mitten, and Nate and Trav can feel it. In this episode, the guys kick back and talk about the changing of seasons, shaking off winter, and that growing anticipation that only turkey season can bring. It’s all about the excitement — early mornings, echoing gobbles, and the kind of fresh start that only spring in Michigan delivers. They each share one memorable turkey hunting story — the kind that sticks with you long after the season ends — filled with close calls, lessons learned, and the moments that keep you coming back to the woods. No deep dives or rule breakdowns — just two buddies fired up for spring and talking turkey.
