RE: spring turkeys
I have tried to bowhunt turkeys for years but always seem to end up hunting with my Remington 11-87. Oh well that is the way it goes. One of the guys that I hunt with did take one turkey with a bow, he started in a tree stand but the birds always seem to be able to see you draw up there so he went to the ground and promply killed a nice turkey. Also from having birds in while hunting deer I noticed this as well. I guess that turkeys are probably easier to hunt from the ground with a bow.
