The Spring Legion Podcast
Welcome to a year-round discussion on the wild turkey and those who hunt them. Hosted by Hunter Farrior, founder of Spring Legion and author of Ballad of a Turkey Hunter, the weekly podcast is geared for all outdoor communities and dives deeper than the usual tactics and calling tips. Holding true to the brand, topics are built upon respecting the heritage and challenges of hunting, with a never-ending appreciation for all that the spring season provides. Enjoy insight from special guests like Dave Owens of Pinhoti Project, Cuz Strickland of Mossy Oak, our friends at NWTF and Muscadine Bloodline, and so many more widely known for their impact in the turkey hunting community, as well as the deer, duck, and waterfowl realm, who exhibit the obsession of which only a real turkey hunter may truly understand. Thanks for listening.

Episode 25: Turkey Hunting and Traveling | The Single-Season Grand Slam
Co-host, Austin Sills, meets up with Hunter Farrior upon his return from a quick mid-west turkey tour for a rundown on Hunter's accidental single-season grand slam.

In this Episode:
- Hunter's route from Virginia, to Tennessee, to Mississippi, to Kansas, to Nebraska, and back.
- How much do logistics matter when only hunting public land or acquiring permission on-the-spot.
- Door-knocking for hunting opportunities and sleeping in your truck.
- The different sights, sounds, smells, and experiences had amid hunting different terrain.

Update: The Spring Legion Podcast will begin shifting to a biweekly episode, meaning every other week throughout the off-season - so, now more than ever, if you'd like to keep up with off-season topics and guests, be sure to subscribe/follow the show to stay in the loop as they will be uploaded somewhat sporadically until next season's preparations kick back in.
We can't thank y'all enough for tuning into this podcast every week! All of the feedback we received this past season has been overwhelmingly worth every bit of this podcast project and we're looking forward to even more as it continues to grow!
