This week on the Borrowed Time Podcast, we take y'all through the third full week of the Mississippi spring turkey season and share some of our successes as well as our frustrations. The Borrowed Time crew managed to catch up to a couple fired up longbeards, but they didn't come without an appropriate amount of sweat equity. Lots of miles were walked, unforgettable memories were shared, and the importance of a RELIABLE boat proved its weight in gold in this weeks episode. Y'all stick with us as we share our week in the woods. 

This week on Borrowed Time, we relive the past week of spending time in the woods and look ahead to April. After countless miles and hours spent in the turkey woods, it's easy to get discouraged whenever you've yet to tote one out; however it's even more important to keep hunting----- it will all come together. The past several years of great hatches are coming into play, making the Hardwood Bottoms of Central Mississippi an exciting place to be. We've still got a couple turkeys to chase and a lot of season left, y'all stick with us.  

In this episode of the Borrowed Time Podcast, we take you through our hunts for the entire first week of the Mississippi Spring Turkey Season. We take you through the ups, the downs, the successes, and the mornings where we learned how to best that gobbler on another day. We talk about how using terrain to advance on turkeys sometimes puts you right where you need to be to close the deal, and how just because its your first setup, it doesn't mean it has to be your last. In the early season spring woods, everything tends to be wide open, so choosing the right tree can be a very crucial step in assuring your success that morning. We've got a lot of season ahead of us, y'all stay right here with us.
