Well im a recent convert from the Shot gun to the bow side of hunting birds, I found out taking my first bird with archery gear that the RUSH was imense, and like starting over again, I find in turkey hunting that i run myself ragid if i have to trying to score a bird. Ill be hard pressed to drag out the gun again. Dont get me wrong i totally loved gun hunting them but the new twist and style of hunting with archery means so much more to ME right. its the challenge for me!!
