For decades, Mark Prudhomme has studied turkeys the old-school way.

No gimmicks.

No burning the woods down.

• Why soft calling kills more gobblers

• The biggest mistake most turkey hunters make

• How public land pressure actually makes you better

• Low-impact turkey hunting strategy

• How to run a trumpet call the right way
