Am I the only one here that turns their bow down for

I leave my # up because you never know when that 180 class gobbler is going to show.

You know the one that is in your dreams everynight. He weighs close to 60# with a set of 3" spurs and a couple beards around 15 & 20" .


I leave my bow the same year round. I don' t like to retune.

Two Beards, I turn my down to the minimum which is 60 lbs. IMO, you don' t want a high speed bow, with high kenetic energy for turkey. it don' t take much punch for turkeys, and it' s best for the arrow to stay in.
