Hell yea!! Shout out to Shane for not naming the state. Needs to be a new trend for TH-cam. Nice work!!! We are just here to watch good turkey hunting content, the name of the state doesn’t matter one bit.
Awesome Shane! I gotta tell you I was starting to have withdrawals waiting on a video. Congrats on the hunt. Looking forward to following your season. My best friend and I will be in Nebraska next weekend. Hopefully get are first Merriam.
I've had several encounters with Bears. One particular Bear, I had to chase away 3 times one morning. I called several Gobblers across Creeks. Two across secondary roads and one across a lake. He landed about 10 yards behind me.
I tried my darndest to call a gobbler across a lake last season. But 500 yards of water was just too much for him to cross haha. I heard him get shot over on the pivate land across the lake.
The age old decision. Do I go back to where I heard nothing or do I try a new spot. Damned if ya do and Damned if ya don’t with turkey hunting most of the time. lol 😂. Good call and even better video. Thanks for sharing brother. 🤙🏼
I saw three different bears here in Louisiana this weekend. We’re fixing to have a large enough population to hunt ! Our turkey population has taken a hit but I am fortunate to have quite a few birds ! I try to keep the predators down but the hogs are hard on the nest.
I'm visiting your state on a work trip right now and I'm kicking myself for not bringing my shotgun and calls. Just this afternoon I was driving through publoc land and saw three separate gobblers cross the road.
Looks a lot like Apalachicola National Forest here in Tallahassee including the gnats. Our birds have been super silent this year aside from the one I killed earlier this season. Way to stick with it!
Shane I’ve deer hunted my whole life(mostly bow). I live & love it, I started turkey hunting 3 years ago…mainly because I was gone working for a long time. But I live in Mississippi & I hunt public 99% of the time. I had vacation this past week & I was on gobbling birds all week. Either they would hang up & just go cold. Or hang up so long, that I get up to change positions on them & I booger them or some other turkeys. I did kill one opening day & it’s only my 2nd one, but man yall make it look easy. I do believe elite calling makes some difference., I wanna ask do you get on to gobblers that hang up & you go home without a bird or do you ever booger them making a move to try another angle? The places I hunt have birds, but it’s heavily pressured!!! Enjoy your content man!!!
I fail often. Bump birds as I'm trying to get closer, have birds hang up, and then disappear. It doesn't happen as often as it did when I was younger and less experienced, though.
Turkey hunted a lot of years never run into a bear yet makes you wonder about going in the woods before daylight. Great job on your bird once you got set up it didn’t take long
@ShaneSimpsonHunting Yeah good Ole marketing 😁 Appreciate you letting me know. I'm gonna have to try that out this week. 15th can't get here soon enough in Arkansas. Good luck brutha.
WHAT KINDA OWL HOOTER DOES THIS MAN USE. I've been trying to lookat his and look at one's and line ne idea ???? Idk if it's a hooks custom calls or what
Best turkey content on the tube.
Appreciate it Stan!
No doubt. He is the realest with no showboating or bs, just good ol turkey hunting.
I agree. Shane Simpson is the real deal.
You know you’re doing it right anytime you can get them to flap those wings to the call
Crazy sometimes a two foot ditch will hang them up but then they will fly across a river or gully sometimes. Great job.
As always, great content! I'm enjoying it while working on my turkey hunt video from this season!
Congratulations on a nice gobbler! Love how you explain everything. Great video!
Just a great job again. This is turkey hunting as real and relatable as it gets too!
Congrats man! Glad to see the hard work pay off.
Hell yea!! Shout out to Shane for not naming the state. Needs to be a new trend for TH-cam. Nice work!!! We are just here to watch good turkey hunting content, the name of the state doesn’t matter one bit.
If somebody watching this doesn't know what state that is they should probably find another critter to hunt.
No shit, Captain Obvious. The point of the post goes far beyond a single TH-cam video in an obvious setting.
Good job. Congratulations fired up! Thanks for the video Shane
Congrats Shane! the struggle ends. Sweet video, looking forward to the future hunts.
Thanks 👍
Way to grind it out Shane. Also wanted to say thanks for sharing your Burris mount in a previous video, I ordered it and I really like it.
You're welcome! Good luck this spring!
Awesome Shane! I gotta tell you I was starting to have withdrawals waiting on a video. Congrats on the hunt. Looking forward to following your season. My best friend and I will be in Nebraska next weekend. Hopefully get are first Merriam.
Thanks! Good luck in Nebraska. I'm hoping to get out there at some point this spring.
Congrats man. Glad it finally paid off .
That was a sweet hunt! Nice job Shane. Congrats!
It took some effort, but you got one nice bird. Congratulations Shane.
Thanks 👍
“There’s a bear. Lemme see how close I can get to him” then Oops a little too close. Me.. no thanks😂
😅
Nice work Shane! Well earned bird.

Called a few across a river over the years. Great job! Let's go hunting sometime! #ShaneSimpsonHunting
“Let’s see how close I can get” lol
Great content. Excited to take my sister April 19th in Arizona. Keep it coming Shane!
Thanks. Hope she has a successful hunt!
The age old decision. Do I go back to where I heard nothing or do I try a new spot. Damned if ya do and Damned if ya don’t with turkey hunting most of the time. lol 😂. Good call and even better video. Thanks for sharing brother. 🤙🏼
Awesome hunt! Congrats bro. Continued good luck and stay safe.

Nothing like last day success!
Great video!!! Thanks for sharing congratulations
Thank you too!
Awesome camera work in the woods 👍👍
Thank you!

Congratulations Brother. Awesome hunt! 20 gauge did the trick! I see you've doctored up your Hooks hat. 😊
I have town hats and woods hats. :)
@ShaneSimpsonHunting so a man of many hats. 😉

Way to stick with it!
I've hunted there in the past and would agree. It is very similar.
A great hunt Shane

@@ShaneSimpsonHunting appreciate the feedback
Seems like the only time of the year I run into bears here in Wisconsin is spring turkey hunting.
Great hunt!!
Great hunt Shane. I was seriously hoping you’d give that Bear a 🦉 hoot. 😂
Hard earned bird in the swamp. Congrats on a fun hunt.
You seeing that bear take me back to that podcast with you and the southern outdoorsmen 😂
Turkey hunted a lot of years never run into a bear yet makes you wonder about going in the woods before daylight. Great job on your bird once you got set up it didn’t take long
Seen a sow with 3 cubs the other year
another good one!
Nice job brother
Man you’re ahead of the game any time you can flush his hens and not bump him. He panicks more than you setting up your cameras. 😂
Yup, not something you want to do intentionally but I’d be lying if I said I don’t get excited when I bust his hens without him knowing
Man U could tell that one felt good for Shane👍👍
Yes indeed!
Damn fine work!
Nice work. I called the biggest turkey I've ever gotten across a river.
Take notes perfect execution
Late season mn gnats killed me last year lol😂
Unslung that shotgun looking at that bear😅!!!
Just in case. Lol
Sound like a Carolina boy… “there’s a bear I’m gonna try and grab his tail and see what happens” 😂
😅
Shane how different is the recoil from the 12 to 20 gauge? I want to get a 20 but is it worth it?
The 20 seems to kick about 1/2 as much as the 12.
@@ShaneSimpsonHunting k thx. Definitely want one now
Hey Shane.
Is that a coyote mouth call or are you using just a turkey call?
It's the same call I use for turkey calling. There really aren't specific animal type mouth calls. It's mostly a marketing thing companies use.
@ShaneSimpsonHunting
Yeah good Ole marketing 😁
Appreciate you letting me know. I'm gonna have to try that out this week. 15th can't get here soon enough in Arkansas. Good luck brutha.
Thanks. Good luck down there!
I called 2 birds across a river before it was a neat deal
What state are you in?
What kind of quick detach sling do you use? #ShaneSimpsonHunting
It came on my sling from Mossberg. It doesn't have any markings on it, so I don't know which brand it is.
@@ShaneSimpsonHunting Oh ok thank you sir
WHAT KINDA OWL HOOTER DOES THIS MAN USE. I've been trying to lookat his and look at one's and line ne idea ???? Idk if it's a hooks custom calls or what

If I hear that locator howl I'm letting him have the spot. I know when I'm beat.
😅😅😅
🔥🔥
Only Jason Borne can call one across a river.
That's right! 😅
Sit BooBoo sit
Getting close to bears is not my idea of fun😳😑😆
Great hunt!
Great hunt!
