This week, Trey Pique, owner of VooDoo Fishing Charters joins The Revolution to talk fishing and their all-new show “VooDoo Crew” airing Mondays at 7:00 pm ET on Outdoor Channel.
Growing up in a large extended family, I always enjoyed the big reunions. It was a time where stories of growing up were shared, along with the best hunting stories. With a competitive family, stories are always trying to be bested. Before I was even old enough to hunt myself, these stories are what inspired me to dream about hunting. With that being said, here are some interesting tips for telling the best hunting stories:
Poaching, trespassing, road hunting - illegal hunting activity is an unfortunate reality that all hunters deal with to some extent. It’s a regrettable tie that binds hunters together, regardless of the species we pursue, it’s a subject where we can find common ground in supporting efforts to enforce game laws and punish offenders.
Have you ever taken a kid hunting? It’s spring, the weather is warming and now is an excellent time to throw them in the deep end of the hunting lifestyle. There is no wrong time to start taking kids hunting, and as a matter of fact, from my perspective, the sooner the better!
How many beards does it take to make the record book? Listen in and find out as we talk turkey with Fred Eichler on this week’s show.
Fred Eichler is the co-host of “Everything Eichler” on Sportsman Channel, but he’s not just a hunting enthusiast, he’s also an experienced full-time guide and outfitter and the owner/operator of Full Draw Outfitters in Colorado. This week, Fred stops by to talk spring turkey hunting where he has been busy putting hunters on the birds. With turkeys grouped-up, Fred says he’s been using fanning and decoys to try to peel birds off. Not one to pigeon hole himself, Fred says that he utilizes a variety of different calls, as well, on a regular basis. Diaphragm, box, slate – Fred says that he switches it up until he finds the winning sound that will draw the birds in.
What’s your favorite way to hunt gobblers?
Mike Stroff is the host of “Savage Outdoors” Tuesdays at 10:30 pm ET on Sportsman Channel, and he’s spending some serious time in the field this spring calling in gobblers. While he says that he’s a fan of hunting turkeys with a shotgun, when it comes to archery equipment he prefers a crossbow over a vertical bow for turkeys. Shooting a crossbow is a lot like shooting a gun, Mike says, all you need are some shooting sticks and you can get on them and let a bolt fly. When hunting with a vertical bow, often times hunters choose to sit in a blind where they can better mask the movement required to draw a bow.
Did you catch the season premiere of “The Brigade: Race to the Hudson” on Outdoor Channel? Monday, April 22nd kicked off this intense, competitive adventure series that follows 10 people from different walks of life as they embark on an incredible trek together. They are tasked with traveling 750 miles in 28 days, retracing the York Factory Express route, and if they are successful there will be a large cash prize awaiting them at the end. The catch: those 750 miles have to be traveled by foot and by water, no GPS and no fuel, just the collective skillsets of the team and brute strength to carry them through.
People really like the idea of cooking delicious food, that’s why Food Network has become the giant it is. Unfortunately, watching is all the further many people take it. There is a large population of armchair chefs out there. People are intimidated by the kitchen, they want to cook something amazing, but they are afraid to fail. That type of food intimidation is increased exponentially when wild game is brought into the equation. That’s also the reason so many people eat out frequently or buy pre-made food in the frozen section of the grocery store - all the guesswork is taken out of the preparation and they are guaranteed a palatable dish. The reality is that cooking doesn’t have to be hard, you don’t need to be a world class chef to prepare a tasty meal, and you don’t need a degree in flavor profiles to make a meal that hits all the right notes. All it takes is a little help from some people who know about flavor. Brian Tucker is the National Sales Manager at Hi Mountain Seasonings and he joins The Revolution this week with the products, ideas and know-how to help us turn out delicious and satisfying food from our own kitchens.

The country may be divided in many ways these days, however something almost everyone can agree on is denim. People love their jeans, casual or formal, a good denim is a solution for virtually every situation. Between Canada and the Lower 48, 90% of people pull on a pair of jeans almost every day. Jeans are as popular as burgers and fries and honestly, why not. Denim is the longest lasting material out there, jeans can truly last a lifetime. It’s hard to argue against purchasing a pair of pants that will fit you forever (as long as your waistline doesn’t change).
