Talkin' Turkey with 2x Champion Shane Hendershot | The BaseCamp Podcast, Episode 25

When it comes to talkin' turkey, few can claim to do it at the level of our guest in EP. 25 of The BaseCamp Podcast. Shane Hendershot is a 2-time NWTF Grand National Calling Champion who burst onto the competition turkey calling scene by capturing the title in 2007. He did the same thing in the year of 2011, and his name now brings recognition across the turkey calling and hunting universe. Shane joins the show to give us some insight into the incredible world of competition turkey calling by taking us through his backstory, shining light on some of the lesser known aspects of competition, and sharing his championship philosophy on the stage and in the turkey woods. We also get some insights into the world of call-making, as Shane takes us through the lineup at his call company, Hendershot Game Calls. You can't help but get excited to talk with those spring turkeys after this show! No better way to usher in the month of April.

Sheds, Shotguns, and Spring Dreamin' | The BaseCamp Podcast, Episode 22

March is here, and that means a few things around here: shed antler hunting, making preps for spring turkey hunting season, and dreaming of those magical spring days in the outdoors. As bad as these couple of months are for the average American outdoorsman, we are turning the corner and getting hopeful about the days to come. This show begins with some check-in items, progresses to a more in-depth discussion on the reasons why shed antler hunting can help you in the fall, and then closes out with a lot of turkey hunting talk for those of us with spring fever. We even break out a new turkey shotgun that will debut during the 2025 spring turkey season! If you are in the end-stages of cabin fever, jump into EP. 22 of The BaseCamp Podcast to cure it! There is light at the end of the tunnel and plenty of things to get prepped for in the Great Outdoors.

After unveiling my own EDC Pocket Dump back on EP. 18, it was only right to bring Derek back into the fold for his version on EP. 21 of The BaseCamp Podcast. After all, Derek has been here for all of our previous EDC, safety, and Lifestyle episodes. He also happens to know a ton about the subject, so let's roll! Derek brings us through some of his soft goods, organizational tools, material separators (knives), and a couple of wireless hole punchers (firearms). We round things out with plenty of discussion in each phase on why he chooses to equip these items in his everyday carry loadout. Plenty of food for thought when it comes to how you round out your personal EDC toolkit! LINKS 🔗 My Beacon: Links for ALL of our content and socials | https://beacons.ai/chriscampoutdoors
