With deer season now on the brain, we hit up one of our favorite mature buck nerds, Dr. Mike Chamberlain aka The Turkey Doc, for tips and tricks on improving the odds of harvesting mature bucks. Although Mike is widely known for his hands-on and scientific knowledge of all things Wild Turkey, he and his harem of hunting buddies and clients are luckier than most when it comes to actually harvesting the mature bucks they grow. One topic of discussion included tips for encouraging older bucks to set foot in food plots during daylight hours, including how they manage pressure and habitat in the vicinity to really set the scene. It’s not a huge feat anymore to grow and hold mature bucks, but harvesting them on a consistent basis is exponentially more difficult – and they’re doing it! Listen, Learn, and Enjoy.
