Columbus, Miss. (February 12, 2025) – APEX Ammunition and Woodhaven Custom Calls are excited to introduce NEXT LEVEL Ninja TSS shotshells – a new blend of Tungsten Super Shot for turkey hunting. The NEXT LEVEL Ninja features a combination of # 8.5 and # 9.5 TSS, offering the perfect balance between pattern density and knockdown power.
The result of feedback from avid turkey hunters and developed in collaboration with Woodhaven, this premium blend delivers optimized lethality at varied distances, ensuring versatility in numerous hunting situations. NEXT LEVEL Ninja is a lethal turkey load that bridges the gap between the original APEX Smalltown blend and Greenleaf blend – the perfect choice for hunters who prefer medium-sized shot blends.
“At APEX, we’re always pushing the boundaries to give hunters the best possible options when they take to the woods in pursuit of wild turkey,” said Jason Lonsberry, President and CEO, APEX Ammunition. “We’re excited to be back in the innovation process with our partners at Woodhaven Custom Calls. Our new NEXT LEVEL Ninja blend strikes the perfect balance –offering a ‘not-too-big, not-too-small’ solution for hunters looking for versatility. We can’t wait to see it in action this spring.”
“APEX continues to be the industry leader and innovator in the TSS market,” said Mike Pentecost, Founder and Owner, Woodhaven Custom Calls. “The popular Turkey Ninja loads (8.5 shot) that we launched back in 2020 have surely been, and will continue to be, a lethal load, and we are excited to bring a NEXT LEVEL Ninja blend (8.5 – 9.5 shot) to turkey hunters nationwide. I know the NEXT LEVEL will deliver superior performance and give hunters the perfect blend to hunt with.”
