FFOD297 : Whispers from the Camo Cave ~ A Halloween Special

Send us a textWe’re semi-live from the creepy camo cave for our annual Halloween special and this one will make the hair stand up on your neck…  in a family friendly way of course. Every hunter’s felt it, that moment when the woods just… go silent. No wind, no birds, no reason. In this year’s spooky special I’m sharing my own story of that eerie quiet, plus some listener tales of strange things that go bump in the backwoods. Stay connected with Fist Full of Dirt: Instagram: @ffodpodcastInstagram: @moplandforsaleTwitter: @FistDirtTikTok: @originalturkeythugInstagram : @CuzStricklandTwitter: @CuzStricklandFacebook: @CuzStricklandYouTube: Cuz411

Send us a textI’ve known Ted Nugent a long time and every time we talk.. I walk away inspired all over again. Nobody loves bowhunting (or lives it out loud) like Ted does. We got into everything from his early hunting days to the passion and discipline that still drive him after all these years. It’s vintage Uncle Ted.. fired up, full of wisdom and *always* rooted in respect for the hunt.Stay connected with Fist Full of Dirt: Instagram: @ffodpodcastInstagram: @moplandforsaleTwitter: @FistDirtTikTok: @originalturkeythugInstagram : @CuzStricklandTwitter: @CuzStricklandFacebook: @CuzStricklandYouTube: Cuz411

Send us a textThis week I made the trip up to 2nd Amendment Outdoors in Corinth, Mississippi to hang out with Kevin Cribley, better known around here as The Saddle Guy. We got into all things archery and saddle hunting: gear setups, comfort and safety. Kevin’s one of those fellas who’s tried it all and he’ll tell you straight what works and what doesn’t. If you’ve been curious about saddle hunting… or just love good hunting talk, this one’s worth your time in the stand.   Stay connected with Fist Full of Dirt:  Instagram: @ffodpodcast Instagram: @moplandforsale Twitter: @FistDirt TikTok: @originalturkeythug Instagram : @CuzStrickland Twitter: @CuzStrickland Facebook: @CuzStrickland YouTube: Cuz411

Send us a textThis week on Fist Full of Dirt, I’m visiting with Jim Kuhn of The Roost Lodge and the brand new owners to talk about what’s next for one of the most beloved camps in turkey hunting. From decades of memories to fresh plans for the future, you’ll hear the full story… straight from the people keeping the spirit of The Roost alive. Change is in the air  but some things stay exactly the same: good dirt, good folks and turkey hunts that feels like home.   Stay connected with Fist Full of Dirt:  Instagram: @ffodpodcast Instagram: @moplandforsale Twitter: @FistDirt TikTok: @originalturkeythug Instagram : @CuzStrickland Twitter: @CuzStrickland Facebook: @CuzStrickland YouTube: Cuz411

Send us a textEverybody’s got an opinion on what bucks do when the velvet comes off… coats start changing and food sources shift. But I wanted more than opinions, I wanted facts. That’s why I sat down with Dr. Bronson Strickland who’s got decades of real-time location data on whitetails.   Join us as we cut through the guesswork and talk about what the deer are actually doing during that transition window. From movement patterns to food preferences..  this is the kind of info that’ll make you a smarter hunter before you ever step in the woods.   Stay connected with Fist Full of Dirt:  Instagram: @ffodpodcast Instagram: @moplandforsale Twitter: @FistDirt TikTok: @originalturkeythug Instagram : @CuzStrickland Twitter: @CuzStrickland Facebook: @CuzStrickland YouTube: Cuz411

Send us a textThis week I sat down with Madison Dixon from Mississippi State’s Agricultural Autonomy Institute. Now if that sounds fancy, it is .. but trust me, this is one of the most down to earth conversations you’ll hear about where drones and farming are headed. Madison’s not only an expert with over 1,800 hours in the air, he’s also a 5th generation Mississippi farmer.   We covered everything from using drones in agriculture, to how these “uncrewed aircraft systems” are changing the way we scout land, manage crops and even think about the outdoors.    Stay connected with Fist Full of Dirt:  Instagram: @ffodpodcast Instagram: @moplandforsale Twitter: @FistDirt TikTok: @originalturkeythug Instagram : @CuzStrickland Twitter: @CuzStrickland Facebook: @CuzStrickland YouTube: Cuz411

Send us a textThis week I visited with Scot Evans, archery expert, bow shop owner and the man behind the wildly popular TikTok channel BowTok. If it’s got a string, a cam, or a release aid .. we covered it. From budget setups to high end gear, tuning tricks to common mistakes, Scot breaks down bows in a way that makes sense whether you’re brand new to the game or been slinging arrows for decades.

Send us a textBack in the mid 90s we launched an outdoor TV show called Hunting the Country on TNN. Nobody knew it at the time, but it went on to run for two decades and became one of the longest standing hunting shows on national television. What made it different? We kept it about regular folks, relatable hunts and real stories. Judging by the response when I asked if you wanted to hear the full story, a lot of you still remember setting the VCR and watching with your dad. This week I’m taking you behind the scenes of how Hunting the Country came to be, what made it work and why it still means so much to people today.     Stay connected with Fist Full of Dirt:  Instagram: @ffodpodcast Instagram: @moplandforsale Twitter: @FistDirt TikTok: @originalturkeythug Instagram : @CuzStrickland Twitter: @CuzStrickland Facebook: @CuzStrickland YouTube: Cuz411
