Today we are joined by our buddy Aaron Warbritton of The Hunting Public!
Aaron is a rare blend of old-school woodsmanship and modern tactical thinking. He understands the fundamentals, but he also adapts to how turkeys behave under heavy pressure. That combination is what makes him one of the most effective public land hunters that we know.
In this conversation, we cover:
How to find “the X” on unfamiliar public land
Why habitat + pressure dictate everything
How to break down new ground fast
Early vs late season turkey strategy
When to sit patiently — and when to move
How pressure changes gobbler behavior
Beating other hunters without racing them
Reading terrain for the 30–50 yard kill window
Locator calls on pressured birds
Why most hunters leave too early
The mindset required to hunt multiple states successfully
This is a masterclass in public land turkey hunting — from the mental approach to the in-the-woods execution.
If you want to consistently kill public land gobblers anywhere, this one is worth your time.
