Turkey Season Opener
In this podcast episode, co-founder of Weathered Oaks Game Calls, Matt Streim returns to share insights about their specialized turkey calls. Despite an Okayest start with some chair adjustments, the conversation quickly turns to the craftsmanship behind Weathered Oaks' products. Matt explains that their calls, which are handcrafted and lathe-spun using various types of wood, include features like being double-sided and waterproof. These attributes make them unique in the market, especially as they can function perfectly even when wet, a claim tested thoroughly by Matt himself.
As the episode unfolds, it's clear that the creation of these calls is not just a business but a passion for Matt, who started making his own turkey calls in 2019. The conversation also touches on some technical aspects of turkey calling, like how different woods affect the sound quality of the calls. This technical dive is interspersed with anecdotes from other guests and calls from listeners, adding levity and practical hunting advice to the mix. The overarching theme is the blend of entrepreneurship, craftsmanship, and genuine enthusiasm for turkey hunting that defines Matt's work with Weathered Oaks.

What a blast!
Great group of guys that you just can’t help but wanna hang out with. They are intelligent, funny, and business savvy which is the trifecta in my opinion. Great podcast fellas keep up the good work.
A great down to earth crew
These are hunters with families and jobs that talk about maintaining that balance and spreading advice for hunters of all levels to appreciate. I started hunting in my late 30s and gleaned so much knowledge from this crew that my seasons have been increasing in success each year.
