I've helped friends and family to 5 mature Gobblers and 1 Jake this season but have yet to score in only the couple days I've had to get out with my bow. I've had a couple birds come in close but just couldnt get a bow shot out of the experience. I have had the chance to tag a few Jakes that have come in close for a better look but they are just not what I'm lookin' for on the property. I have a couple days left of our season here in IL so I'm gonna keep at 'em and see what happens.Man, I REALLY want to get one with my Mathews DXT! It gets down to the last day I may break and carry the ol' T/C Encore and see if I can stretch a shot a bit. Good luck to the rest of the Team and CONGRATS to all of you that have scored thus far. One this for sure.... it's been an awesome season indeed!

BTW,
