Well after 2 weeks of birds not cooperating, gobbling very much, and just plain henned up.
I connected with a nice one on Minnesota's final day of archery season. 11:00 a.m. I had a hen descoy set up in the field about 15 yards away. I had no blind with me and I heard a couple of gobblers talking back and forth and I knew they were hot. I sprinted towards the gobbles along this oak ridge and it opened up into a field at the end. When I reached the field the gobblers sounded off again. I counted 2 for sure. After glancing the field I set my decoy out and found good cover along the edge where I could see well. I then hit the slate and within 30 seconds the gobblers found my decoy.

One was in strut and the other just walking along. As they closed the distance to my decoy I came to full draw behind the tree. Waited, and waited and waited a bit more. Finally in view I let the Bowtech go to work. Thunk. It was a GREAT DAY!

The bird is 22 pounds sporting a 10+ inch beard and 1 and 1\4 inch spurs.
My first Tom with a bow. He is at the taxidermist for a full body mount. It was a amazing hunt how it all came together the last day. Makes me wonder. Bad pic but its all I have.

I got my new Hunting.net hat on also. You just can't see it too good.

Nice bird

Well im glad everything came to a good end. Nice bird congrats.

Nice Turkey. Long beard.

Very nice, Tribal. That's long beard and spurs. Great bird. I got my first one this year and was it fun. That's pretty cool that you did it with out a blind. I was too scared they would see me way before I saw them but I may try it next year. What broadhead did you use and did he run any? Great job.

Congrats Tribal,nice looking bird

CONGRATS on a great Gobbler!!! There is nothing like bowhuntin' Turkeys!!! I was also fortunate enough to tag a decent gobbler this year. There is just nothing like it!!! Congrats again

Awesome birds, both of you guys.
