Talkin Turkey

Hunter Wallis is a nine-time Grand National Turkey Calling Champion and a highly respected figure in the world of turkey hunting. From a young age, he developed a passion for calling, mastering various techniques that have earned him numerous state and national titles. While he excels in stage-calling competitions, Hunter believes that calling in the woods is a completely different challenge, requiring adaptability and an understanding of a turkey’s natural behavior. His expertise goes beyond just winning contests—he uses his knowledge to educate and inspire fellow hunters, sharing insights on the best calls, setups, and strategies for a successful hunt. When it comes to turkey calling, Hunter emphasizes the importance of selecting the right call for each situation.

He also stresses the significance of proper setup, urging hunters to stay concealed and position themselves strategically when working a bird. Through his YouTube show, Rogue Hunts, and his social media presence, Hunter continues to showcase his skills and passion for turkey hunting, all while helping others refine their calling techniques and improve their success in the field. https://AmericanOutdoorNews.com

In this edition of American Outdoor News Podcast, we had the pleasure of sitting down with Al Perkinson, founder and CEO of Bajío Sunglasses—a brand that’s quickly making waves in the outdoor and fishing communities. With a rich background in the eyewear industry and a passion for coastal conservation, Al shared the story behind Bajío’s creation and what sets the company apart from other performance sunglass brands on the market.

Mentor the Hunter of Tomorrow

I recently had the opportunity to sit down with Mitch Strobl from Pass It On – Outdoor Mentors, a nonprofit organization that is making a real impact in the world of hunting and fishing. The organization’s mission is clear: to connect kids with mentors who can teach them the values, skills, and joys of the outdoor lifestyle. Through structured programs and strong partnerships with state wildlife agencies, conservation groups, and local volunteers, Pass It On has created an accessible pathway for youth to experience hunting and fishing—many for the first time. During our conversation, Mitch spoke passionately about the importance of mentorship in preserving our outdoor heritage. With fewer young people being introduced to the outdoors through traditional family structures, programs like Pass It On fill a critical gap. Mitch shared stories of kids who had never held a fishing rod or fired a rifle before joining the program—some of whom now return year after year, even bringing younger siblings or eventually mentoring others themselves. It’s a powerful testament to the long-term impact that one positive experience in the outdoors can have on a young life. Our interview served as a strong reminder that the future of hunting and fishing depends not only on conservation but on education and community. Pass It On – Outdoor Mentors is helping to build that foundation, one youth and one mentor at a time. Their work not only promotes outdoor skills but fosters responsibility, confidence, and a lifelong connection to nature. It was an inspiring conversation with Mitch Strobl, and we’re proud to spotlight their efforts in American Outdoor News. http://OutdoorMentors.org https://AmericanOutdoorNews.com

The Silent Revolution – Modern Suppressors

In our recent interview with the team at Faxon Arms, we explored the company’s impressive evolution from a precision parts manufacturer to a full-fledged firearms innovator. What began with crafting high-quality gun barrels has since expanded into a comprehensive firearm manufacturing operation. Known for their attention to detail and commitment to performance, Faxon quickly earned a reputation among enthusiasts and professionals alike for delivering reliable, American-made components. As demand grew and their expertise deepened, Faxon Arms naturally progressed from making barrels to producing a wide array of firearm parts, including upper receivers, bolt carrier groups, and complete rifle builds. Their transition was driven by a desire to provide shooters with a dependable and cohesive firearm system that could be trusted in the field, on the range, or in defense scenarios. Every step in their journey reflected a passion for innovation and a focus on quality control, setting them apart in a crowded industry. Now, Faxon Arms is entering the world of suppressors—a move that speaks volumes about where the future of firearm technology is headed. With the same meticulous engineering that put their barrels on the map, they're designing suppressors that offer reduced sound signature without sacrificing performance or reliability. As legislation around suppressors continues to evolve, Faxon is positioning itself at the forefront, delivering products that meet the needs of modern shooters while reinforcing the principles of conservation, responsibility, and cutting-edge design. http://Faxonfirearms.com https://AmericanOutdoorNews.com
