536 - Single Year US Super Slam with Hank Brookside

Single Year US Super Slam with Hank Brookside

This week, Cameron and Andy are joined by Hank Brookside, who is not only the youngest person to ever complete a US Super Slam of turkey hunting but also the only person to have ever completed the US Super Slam in less than 12 months.

This journey all took place from January of 2025 through December of 2025. Hank shares the story of how he completed the Slam in under 12 months, as well as some stories of his different hunts around the country. As you can probably imagine there are a few wild ones that he takes the time to share with us.

Hank also shares his desire to finish his second US Super Slam entirely in the spring of 2027. He is still in the process of planning that season out, while he is riding the high of recently completing a 12 months US Super Slam.

This is an episode filled with great turkey hunting stories from what would be, but is not likely to be for Hank, a once in a lifetime experience.

Whether you are a seasoned pro or a beginning turkey hunter, The Turkey Hunter Podcast is your show. In this podcast, turkey hunters, like you, will learn to have more turkeys on your hunting property and more successful turkey hunts. Your hosts, Andy Gagliano and Cameron Weddington, will teach you this through tips and interviews with turkey hunting pros, wildlife management experts, and entertaining turkey hunting stories from his years of turkey hunting around the country. Some of the topics covered in this podcast are how to film your hunts, properly positioning your decoys, hunting afternoon and field turkeys, dealing with henned up gobblers, turkey calling tips, benefits of control burns and predator control, as well as new product reviews. If you wake up in the middle of the night with cold sweats dreaming of the big gobbler that you missed this past season, if you hear turkeys gobble in your head anytime you hear an owl hoot or a crow caw, if you take off of work the opening week of turkey season, and if you eat, sleep, and breathe turkey hunting, then you will want to download and subscribe to The Turkey Hunter Podcast with Andy Gagliano and Cameron Weddington.
