Osceola Hunt And Gear Giveaway Lede

Four-Play Turkey Calls and Jeff Budz's Tag it Worldwide have partnered up with a host of other premier turkey-hunting companies to offer an Osceola hunt and gear giveaway. One winner will be chosen for each prize for a total of five winners, on March 12, 2025. The prizes are as follows:

  1. A fully paid Osceola hunt with Jeff Budz' company Tag it Worldwide.
  2. A Nukem Double Up blind system in Mossy Oak 3D Leafy Obsession.
  3. An Elite Turkey Starter Bundle from SKRE Gear, which includes: a Wasatch Crew Top; Wasatch Bottoms; Hardscrabble Pants; a Grid Lite Jacket; a Bowen 150 Balaclava and Velocity Gloves.
  4. A 4-Play Turkey Call Bundle including the Rafter, Classic and Original 4-Play turkey calls.
  5. A Summit Turkey Vest System from Final Rise.

Tag It Worldwide, headed by Jeff Budz, has over 35 years of experience guiding, writing and filming. Jeff won the 2015 World Turkey Hunting Championship; has completed over 100 Grand Slams; has over 500 turkeys under his belt personally; and has completed a self-guided Spring Super Slam out of all 49 states. For Osceola hunts, Jeff (who has lived in Florida himself since 2005) leases several ranches, the largest being 13,000 acres and the smallest just 10. The trick? That 10 acre parcel sits in the middle of an unhunted 6,000-acre ranch and is a favored spot on opening day. Regardless of size, Jeff only allows up to half the toms to be harvested on each ranch, keeping pressure low.

Thanks to this variety of locations and low-pressure policy, Jeff's hunters boast an almost perfect success rate. He even guarantees that if a hunter has to leave early due to an emergency and cannot get a bird, he will allow the hunter to come back the same spring at no extra charge to get a Tom.

Florida’s Southern Zone opens the first Saturday of March and the Central Zone opens the third Saturday of March. To enter for a chance to win this incredible hunt or gear, visit 4playturkeycall.com/OsceolaHuntContest, where you can also find additional information on the unique 4-Play box call.
