Ep. 435: Turkey Stories - Getting Shot, Attacked by Bobcats, and Flintlocks
Podcast:Bear Grease Published On: Wed Mar 25 2026 Description: On this episode of the Bear Grease Podcast, it’s Turkey Stories time! We’ve gathered a lineup of hunters from Arkansas, Alabama, Virginia, and Mississippi, both young and old, connected by a love of spring turkey hunting. You’ll hear about a University of Arkansas student on her first solo hunt, a hunter who survived being shot in the back, bobcats crashing the scene at the worst possible time, a woman in pursuit of a Turkey World Slam with a flintlock shotgun and more. Plus, insight from turkey biologist Mike Chamberlain and voices shaped by a lifetime in the woods. If you love turkey hunting or just plain old good stories, don’t miss this one.
