    I think I've been on one hunt where the bird never gobbled, in my opinion that's a rarity and something to remember the hunt by. Good stuff guys, Congrats Zach

    Man I figured there'd be more butte jokes from Zinger in Montana. I really expected Zach to throw the Tom over his shoulder, look back at the camera and go: "He's a Butte!" That kill shot was insane though.

    Zach... That was a classic situation. LOL!! I had a buck do that to me when deer hunting. Knew deer was in the area but couldn't help it and turned a cup of coffee into a liter. Well don't you know a buck steps out. Fortunately he had no clue I was there and got him. Great hunt and loving this Montana series. Thinking next year I may give turkey hunting a go. Just got a shotgun, now I need to find ammo. 🦃🤔

Me and a few buddies would love to put you on a couple spots to let you go in and try to figure out how to kill one of these big bucks! Shooting a buck in NH over 200lbs will be the hardest challenge yet and I want to see you succeed in these beautiful hills we have

    I've heard pressured birds don't gobble because it gives up their location. I've hunted a few easterns like that. Makes it more difficult to pinpoint them when they come in

    • @kenchamblee7856
      @kenchamblee7856 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Per Dr. Mike Chamberlain of the University of Georgia, the same Dr. Chamberlain featured in a Hunting Public episode this year, that is exactly what happens. "There's no question hunting activity reduces gobbling activity." "We've seen that in several studies. Really heavy pressure basically shuts them down."
