I don't believe I willl ever take a shotgun to the turkey woods again. The excitement and challenge of taking a bird with the bow is unexplainable. I have shot 4 and found 3 birds with my bow. All on the ground without a blind. Like said earlier, it is much easier hunting them out of a blind. I am going to invest in a DB Matrix before spring time and go after the gobblers with my recurve. The reward and thrillis so much greater witha stick and string. I am thinking about using the guillotine (with my compound)this coming spring, they look pretty fascinating. Like said before, they are trouble transporting around while on the arrow. I think anyone that is interested in taking one with a bow should try it. Good luck to everyone this spring!!
