This week on A Fist Full of Dirt podcast, we’re gonna visit with Chad Claycomb. @claycomboutdoors He’s a video producer who gets most of his turkey content on public land in Pennsylvania and West Virginia. I made a post a few weeks ago of him calling and made the statement that his calling was my newest favorite yelp. He’s a great caller and after binge watching his channel, I was impressed with his turkey skills, especially his camouflage tips. You’ll learn something on this episode no doubt....

This week we take a look behind the scenes of the Mossy Oak Foxhole shootout. This event has turned into a beast and generates a lot of money for St Jude, Catch a Dream and Sole. It’s a great example of people volunteering their time and working for no other reason than helping others. It’s what the Mossy Oak brand is all about. It’s not too late to donate to any of these great organizations.
