Default Let's see your resume'

Wondering what kind of turkey hunting resume's we have among us. I know we've got some talented turkey hunters in this group.

So.....since this IS the BOWHUNTING turkey contest....lets limit it to that.

Me.....This is my second year hunting them with a bow.....having taken my first bow gobbler last year.

What about you?

Alright well, since we're limiting it to BOWHUNTING... here it is:

I've actually only bowhunted turks in the spring for about 4 years:

6- Long beards
3- Hens (Fall Season)
1- Jake (Fall Season)

First year with stick and string for me.....Never could find the willpower to leave the gun at home previous years.

One hen duing the fall this year with the bow. First turkey ever with a bow.

I finally got on a good place this year and hopefully I can step it up a notch.

First year to try it with a bow.

Been chasing em with a gun for 12 tho. The place I hunted before wasn't well suited to huntin em with a bow. Not a lot of birds, and hunting National Forest Land. Mostly big timber and hills.

I have a better place to bowhunt them now with more birds too.

Killed probably 15 with a shotgun before I switched over to only bowhunting them about 5 years ago. Killed another dozen or so since then with the bow. It is a blast to shoot them with a bow. It would be hard to take out the shotgun at this point, but I'm sure I'll do it again someday.
