They have to name a state so they can have their video show up first when someone searches " 'xyz' state turkey hunt". And SO many people watch their videos just try to find the next best state/spot to turkey hunt in. It is also why you routinely see them throw "public land" in the title. If they just titled a video "Southeastern Gobbler at 20 yards" or "Midwest gobblers galore!" it'd be tougher for them to show up in searches. Another reason THP has long video titles, they need as many 'key words' as possible.


It is all about building their brand and following.

I recently met with with Dave and asked him to quit naming states. Oh boy, that didn't go over well! Basically, I was told he's a traveling turkey hunter who has built his brand on traveling to different states so he is always going to name states! Told me all I needed to know right there.
