Way 2 go. That is my goal this year. A turkey with the x-bow.

Can I ask where did you hit him?

I am leary to shoot one & lose it!!
A touch of frost has heightened your awareness and your heart steadily beats in anticipation. Your senses are suddenly alert to the movement on the forest floor and you realize that the moment of truth is at hand.

Heart/Lung shot. It's critical to study up on a turkeys vitals. It's misleading where they are. Hope these pics help. I'll show you my shot and some pics of vitals. Good luck.

Thanks for the info. You proved it can be done...

I read somewhere to aim for the shinny spot on the wings. The vital pics prove that theory to be dead nuts. I think I will use the Ibex & let my Dad kill one with his old shotgun. That is if we see one on opening day!! :)
