You have timber companies or others like Weyhauser in South Carolina that own HUGE tracts of land all over our state that are basically turkey deserts. Might as well be a parking lot as far as a turkey is concerned....what can be done? If there could be a study done about the cost and or money lost when providing turkey habitat on a pine tree farm, maybe a matching incentive from the state or other organizations could be offered to a land owner that chooses to provide turkey habitat on their pine tree farm....
Same here in Arkansas Weyerhaeuser and potlatch deltic have come in bought up all the land and cut it and planted a jungle turkey are dying out and deer are too
I live in the low country of SC, and DNR has a reputation of burning woods when hens lay their nest. I know the coyote, coon, etc; has a pretty good population, so that doesn’t help either. But I will say on our farm land and club, we produced at least 6 long beards and probably 12 jakes spread across both properties last year. The hen numbers are pretty good too. But like I said, DNR doesn’t do too good down here. Take a look at duck habit/population. Majority of good stuff is private. We can only hope and pray for change. Good luck to you and anyone else this Turkey season. Be safe!
The real truth….. most of the people complaining don’t have huge tracks of private land they can manage . They either hunt timber company land or public in which they have no control or say so in how the land is managed …. The squeaky wheel isn’t places like Hollis farms.
The National Forest I hunt rarely burns anything or burns during turkey season. Smokey bear says no burning allowed on private in WV. Any time they cut timber on public people complain or try to stop it
Same in nc
Any of y'all that haven't watched Jason and Cody Hollis Farms is a heck of a channel puts out a hunting video nearly every day during turkey and deer season, as well as all his land management stuff. Warb asked some great questions nice to see Jason and his place from a different angle.
I am loving the day to day vlog style of this series and all the behind the scenes looks
This was an awesome video. Ben following Hollis since last year he does it right. Thanks THP for being so vocal about habitat
I learned more about habitat in this one video then ever before thank y’all for this!
Two of my favorite channels, and people in general, hunting together. Love it! I have been watching all of both of your channels' videos for years now.
Thanks for going the extra mile and explaining and detailing the efforts done for an awesome turkey population !!!
I love the strategic and practical forest management discussion as it relates to wildlife habitat management! Excellent discussion and great job @HollisFarmsMS!
THP done went The Hunting Private another great video Mississippi delivers again!!!
Great stuff for Cody! Loved hearing the habitat discussions too. I really think it is so valuable for the turkey hunting community to have access to that kind of information. I am encouraged by the amount of turkey habitat management discussions I am hearing across various platforms like THP,, OnX, and the Wild Turkey Science Podcast. And as always, so glad that Nick Andrews is BACK!!!
I’m so glad y’all shared this information. I have been looking into what I can do as far as managing for turkeys on our land here in north central Ms and this was very informative. Love THP!
I wish I owned that much land and could afford to manage it the right way. That's hunting heaven.
Great video guys. What Jason is saying is spot on, and he and his family have been doing since the 80s!
it simple. just got to by 1000+ acres and manage it for 20-30 years and youll have a flock of turkey.
Congratulations on a great hunt. Love the habitat information too!
Awesome hunt gentlemen, great looking Tom! The information could be a ton of help as well in the near future, Missouri bound to clear my property...lol Love what ya'll are doing ❤️
Very useful discussion plus a great hunt. Can't do the same things here in Indiana, but the concept that it takes a number of habitat features to satisfy wildlife in all seasons still holds true.
Awesome hunt and video guys. Yeah, Jason sure has some turkeys! Great stuff! Keep up the great work.
Some great information on managing hardwood and hunting, having both is what I like. I appreciate your expertise and experience, thank you!! Love your videos
Where I hunt it is mostly fields and the woods we have are oaks and a little pines
Interesting video!!! Always like learning about the habitat side!
Good to see young guys have a ball chasing these birds. I have a youth hunter I’m taking out this coming weekend in Alabama! Love these videos and some of my own will be out soon!!
The trying to figure out where the birds gobbling is all to well known 😂🤣
Great video guys! Love the conservation side of the video. I would love to have one of the leading Turkey biologists explain why/how Jason is successful.
Great example of what the proper habitat can do for turkeys! And all wildlife in general!
6:27 Gobble: points NSEW 😂
Love the vids! Getting me by until April 15th😂
Great video. Man you guys are living the dream!
I love Jason’s channel, nice collaboration!!
I watch Jason’s channel and his place/land is awesome. Seems like a good guy. They have spent a lot of time and money over many years and I wish more land owners would do what they are doing but it takes money and time which most people don’t have. I’m from north Mississippi and I have hunted all over the south and hunted here when Turkey hunting was great and required no land management really. Now timber companies have transformed the south in to basically deserts for game. For example clear cuts are great for wildlife but not when you cut it then spray it with herbicide that basically keeps anything from growing other than pine trees for several years. The best thing that could happen is if we could get timber companies to burn in rotations. Cheap and great for wildlife. They should considering how much money they make off wildlife with their millions of acres leased.
Thank you for the very good video on habitat!
One of the best and informative videos in a while. We are trying to talk the timber companies in Tennessee to checker boarding more properties especially on Public and leased land.
Some of these WMAs and National Parks should take note of some of this stuff
Are those fresh tomatoes on your dash? Oh baby! Great video guys, keep on doin what your doin Warb!
Awesome video!
Enjoyed this one been watching the Hollis folks for a min
Definitely enjoyed the habitat info!
Another great video!
Did some burning on Hollis Farms a few year ago. It was loaded with turkeys
Man this video makes so much sense. Definitely here in louisiana its the timber companies that have changed. Yeas of course the lack of trapping has had an affect but predominantly its the timber companies clear cutting too soon. With less thin cuts and less prescribed burns. And like a previous comment i dont think itll change unless there is an incentive to provide better turkey habitat. All about that 💰
You know what would be cool is to see Cody start a career with y’all when he gets older
Well alright NICK Good Ears Buddy! Make some Jokes! Congratulations to Cody and The Crew!
That was sweet, the hunt was cool but to listen to the habitat part. That was the ticket
Would love to see more about managing hardwoods in the north
If I may give you some tips, when calling don’t move like you did you may think the Tom thinks your coming to him but any older and mature Tom will hang up and stop coming to you because he thinks the hen is coming and more interested in him then he is of her. There were some other details but that’s the major one.
Habitat is a big part but removing the nest predators is essential as well.
I wish the Michigan DNR would pay attention to these videos. We have huge areas of Manistee National Forest that is already broken into mile X mile sections. They lumber it off but with no regard to turkeys.
heck of a shot young man, congrats!!
If I ever win the lottery I'm going to buy a thousand acres and fix it up and manage it to be a hunting heaven. That's my dream. I don't want nothing fancy. Just a small log cabin on a bunch of land with a creek or two running through it. I'm a simple country boy.
I agree good gobbling for a jake
Just wondering when yall are gonna saddle up and get after them from saddles with bows. That's an EPIC episode.
We just saw a giant gobbler
Very cool video
South Carolina DNR sure could learn a lot from this video.
Hay any of you guys coming to PA this year for Turkey 🦃
Good stuff to know. Are y’all hunting Alabama this year
Great video on the habitat. Was there any conversation about predator control? Due to having a vineyard I trap forty plus raccoons, opossums and skunks each season. Been doing it for eight or nine years. There are more and more turkeys, especially big broods, every year. I’m assuming the predator egg thief control has some role in that increase. I’m in SE MN
He doesn’t trap much other than hogs.
That’s cool habitat stuff wish Ohio wld open bobcat trapping and it stop frosting clear n to may odnr says late cold problem also
Crazy that this happened and im with 20 min of this land! So cool to see them around my area!
What do you know about that bakery Jason always goes to is it as good as he says it is? After years of watching him he's about got me to travel to Mississippi just to try their sausage cheese balls
@@williamwhite1997 If I’m going to be honest with you I don’t go there a lot anymore. They have a couple decent things for breakfast that arnt too bad. If you’re going there for donuts there kinda meh. There’s alot of people that really like it and alot that don’t really care for it. But I go past there alot and on Saturdays every week it’s always full 🤷♀️.
@@williamwhite1997 Also have never tried there sausage cheese balls so I can’t comment on that.
@@williamwhite1997 the truth is Jason is such a simpleton that goes to McDonald’s & Wendy’s when he’s on vacation with his family. I wouldn’t put much stock in his food selection among many other things he says, but won’t go into that right now
@@TimHollis3006 How did he hurt your feelings for you to make such gossipy women comment? Besides I've seen his vacation vlogs and don't recall McDonald's being a big part.
How many miles does the the old tundra have on it ? Can't believe turkey season is in .
cant beat it
Cool man
Great place. I much prefer my oak meadows but all the same
Had to throw the tee-awk at him
Wish the Oklahoma wildlife department would watch this video.
If you’re a private land owner you can definitely apply these concepts and without a doubt you will reap the benefits. Even on smaller 50-100acre tracts you will see the increase in wildlife.
Unfortunately most of us hunt lease timber company land and 99% of the timber co’s could care less about burning or any type of land management. What they lose in a little bit of production they make up in lease dollars over the 25 years between clear cutting. They don’t care and it shows. Until they change their habits turkey, quail, and even deer populations will suffer.
Stranglehold Outdoors 👊
Yall should come down to south Mississippi and you can see the complete opposite of this property. I grew up hunting wolf river wma and you used to see burns and thinning and quail/turkey everywhere. But weyhauser has ruined that place and many other large tracts tgat they own.
Pa clear cuts and fences it in. I wish they'd burn more.
Jason knows a thing a or two about turkeys and deer management...
we need a bag dump video please
I own a timber company here in east Texas and I love the way he is managing his timber, unfortunately large timber companies are not going to adapt to the 50 basal area strategy. If you thin past a 70-80 basal area the timber will not grow properly. It is a great Turkey habitat to thin it that hard, but the large timber companies won’t adapt to this. His theory about letting them grow is slightly flawed as well. The time value of money eats up any growth in diameter of timber. Unfortunately, the large timber companies will always max out their income. And the turkeys will suffer because of it. It’s sad.
Atta boy.
First comment💪🏼 I love the constant videos your hard work is appreciated!!
imagine living in maine but you have to wait untill may to hunt them
Was hoping to hear about how he controls predation. Coons, opossums, armadillos, fox, coyotes etc. Maybe next time
He doesn’t do much trapping other than for hogs
🔥❤️🔥❤️
What is your message
Sad thing is that Foresters don't manage for turkeys they manage for timber companies who are only worried about that bottom line...$$$$
👍
Predator management as well
This was bird was killed about 2 miles behind my house😂
Aaron do they trap predators on their farm? or just do habitat management?
They trap occasionally but main focus is habitat. He hasn’t trapped much the last few years
how about predators management and fireants?
He traps hogs, coons and some coyotes, I ain't never heard him talk about fireants.
Doesn't hold a flame to habitat. Without habitat that means nothing
The hunting private
lol
Do you trap for predators to help the birds?
He has done some trapping but not often. More of his trapping is for hogs.
Yall hunting ohio this year?
If I was a smart young man I would have bought me some land years-ago when it was affordable and I wouldn’t be struggling on public now 🤬😂
First here again yeah
First
So is his property posted?
Hollis farms isn’t but 3 hours away from me
Us indians have been doing this forever. Mashkoode!
Unrealistic when you’re leasing from a timber company, private landowners and their silver spoon mouth kids can accomplish this. That’s why you hear theirs no turkeys because 90% of the land in Arkansas is timber company or game and fish. No burning on timber company land, no herbicides so don’t act like we’re lazy, limited amount of trapping allowed. Habitat management is for the rich FACTS
is this the hunting public or hunting highly managed private properties? Between this and endlessly promoting the $300 turkey vest you seem to have lost touch with our audience
I’ll bet he paid you guys to come there to boost his channel
Of course he did, that guy is a total loser!
I'll bet he didn't. He owns a dadgum timber farm I doubt he's fretting over UA-cam money.
Have you met him?
@@williamwhite1997 have you met him?
He has more money than god! But that doesn’t make Jason Hollis happpy
Decoys??!! WAY too good woodsmen, callers to be using decoys……youth hunt or not. HUGE turn off for me.
