Episode 164: Come Hunt Ducks with us in Oklahoma

Have you ever wanted to get into waterfowl hunting or grow your existing waterfowl hunting skills? Well, we have the perfect hunting skills camp for you! We are partnering with G&H Decoys to host our first-ever Oklahoma Waterfowl Camp this coming January! It doesn’t matter if you have hunted for years or are just picking up a shotgun, we have a spot for you to join us at our hunting skills camp, this winter in Eastern Oklahoma.  Sign up now: https://harvestingnature.com/product/oklahoma-duck-hunting-camp-2/ “Although not the first state to jump into mind when thinking of waterfowl, Oklahoma has been blessed with many diverse opportunities for waterfowlers. Located at the southern portion of the Central Flyway, Oklahoma is part of the wintering range for many species of ducks and geese. This provides sportsmen an opportunity to pursue their feathered quarry from November through January.” At this camp, we will hone your skills with a shotgun on the skeet range, scout for good habitat, teach you to call ducks, set up decoys, clean ducks, butcher waterfowl, package the meat, and cook tasty meals with waterfowl all in one extended weekend. All hunting will be DIY with our crew hunting alongside you, but not guiding you.  We will use the G&H Decoy HQ as our base camp for all classes, meals, meetings, hunting planning, and campfires. Lodging will be at a nearby hotel, just minutes away from base camp. Our highly skilled, professional chefs, Adam Berkelmans and Justin Townsend, will prepare meals each day. The G&H crew will spend time ensuring you are comfortable shooting on the range in order to prepare you for the transition to the waterside where you will have the opportunity to hunt a variety of migratory waterfowl. Daytime classes will include topics such as Waterfowl Hunting 101, Intro to Duck Calling, Butchering Waterfowl, Hunting with Dogs, E-scouting and Scouting Public Land Waterfowl Classes, Advanced Cooking Techniques, and so much more! Each day you will have the opportunity to scout multiple hunting spots and to go on four total DIY, unguided, duck hunts with both the G&H and Harvesting Nature crews. They will hunt right alongside you as you both try and bring home some game.  After the hunt, our expert butcher, Adam Berkelmans, will walk you through the steps on how to break down the ducks and process the meat for storage in the freezer and for later eating. Everyone will get the opportunity to work with birds even if you do not harvest any in the field.  Each night, after the hunts, our chefs will bring you into the kitchen. There they will provide hands-on instruction on how to prepare different cuts from the waterfowl you harvested. You will be taught kitchen skills to take back home and showcase for your friends and family.  At the end of the camp, you will walk away with the skills to hunt, shoot, process, store, and cook your waterfowl. These skills easily translate over into any other game birds you would decide to hunt in the future.
