Turkey Hunting Tips with Shane Simpson
In this week’s episode, Shane Simpson is interviewed about turkey hunting tips and calling strategy. Shane is lives in Minnesota but produces an annual video series titled, “Calling All Turkeys” each spring. He travels across the country, filming himself and others hunting turkeys on both public and private land. Garrett and Shane hunted turkeys together in 2015, and Shane’s run-and-gun tactics influenced how he turkey hunts public land to this day.
Shane doesn’t just hunt turkeys; he’s also a competition caller. He has won more than 20 calling titles and has placed in numerous others, including winning the Minnesota State Calling Championship in 2011, 2015 and 2017 and he finished 2nd-Runner Up in the 2015 Grand National Owl Hooting Championship. Along with producing Calling All Turkeys, Simpson does freelance work for numerous hunting industry companies including Field & Stream and ScoutLook. He is also an outdoor writer with some of his work appearing in the National Wild Turkey Federation’s “Turkey Country” and “Jakes Country” magazines.
