Scott Ellis joins us for one of the most tactical turkey hunting conversations we've ever had on the show. Scott breaks down his signature \"hide the hen\" setup strategy — the idea that where you sit when you call matters just as much as how you call. If a gobbler can look over and confirm no hen is standing there, he's gone. Scott walks through exactly how to use terrain features like elevation changes, bends in roads, field edges, and thickets to get birds into gun range before they ever see you. Beyond the setup, Scott covers how to handle pressured and non-callable birds, how to read a gobbler's behavior and adjust your aggression level on the fly, afternoon hunting tactics, calling volume based on pressure and weather, and how to pick which bird to target when multiple toms are on the roost. If you're headed to the woods this season, this one is worth the listen. Got a question for the show?
