Default Bird Down - Should have used the bow...

Thanks guys for going over to see my post on the Turkey Forum on this mornings kill...[8D]

I should have used the bow...the trophy Jake (5.5 inch beard)[8D] came right in at 12 yards....I skimmed and flipped him with the super full choke out of the 835...and he tried to run off.....

and then Irolled him at 55 yards like he was in my lap...Unreal how the magnums run those #4's at long ranges.

The 6 minute video production is complete...Its a beauty...

MW

Hey guys...my buddy is coming by tomorrow and we will try to get it rolling! Its a gun kill..but its really cool. It came together like a pro....it has been a 5 year road of learning video for mebut I'm starting to get the jist of it...lets just say its a sweet clip for the average JOE...[8D]

Even though I nearly missed the bird at 12 yards with the super full chokes....I never flinch...... and I admit...I jerked out of my shorts...I was so mad that I had to abuse myself with the 3.5 inch mag 12 gauge turkey load (a second time!!)....the second shot rolled it at 55 yards...where is L8ker!! He saw the vid!

PS. Magicman is the man.hahahahaha

You won't think much of me when you see the ALMOST miss at 12 yards...I know I would have been better with the Bow...friggin super fulls

How am I going to run the cam and a bow on a turkey? all by myself.....Hmmmm...

I guess I'll ponder on that for the next 12 months..
