That's because he have a lot of turkeys here in Nebraska....and some are rather large. The place that I am going hunting this weekend has toms that will top 25 or 26 pounds. I just bought a bow a few months ago and am going turkey hunting for the first time ever, with my bow. If things go well, I am going to try to complete my Grand Slam with a bow. It's tough to do, I would think, but it's always worth it.
