No Sunday gun hunting = excal time!

Post by evaughan »

The outdoors and hunting have provided many great experiences over the years, but it's never to late to add a new one. My first crossbow turkey.

One of my best spots sees a ton of traffic of all skill levels on the neighboring farms. Sundays are the day to have it all to myself with the gun hunters at home in bed. Birds were gobbling all around me and this Jake and his buddy were first on the scene, strutting and gobbling like a couple of big shots.
Blew an arrow through him broadside in full strut at 22 yds. 40 yd recovery.

set up is a fairly stock vortex with sts and a boo string. Arrows are custom 2219's from the Bow shop.

Lastly, I like to take any opportunity I can to plug local entrepreneur Kevin Bartley and Gobblestalker game calls, a company I share no affilliation with other than some strong opinions about what makes a good turkey call. One of his box calls in my possession is starting to rack up quite a record. :D
