Gobblers
Well I finally got a turkey with my bow, actually got 2. 
Was waiting for a deer in my blind when a whole boatload of turkeys came by. They make a God awful rackett to be sure & even tho they spot me a hundred yards away if I'm in a tree they cant see you in a tent.
I waited for a clear shot at the biggest one I could see & whacked it. It flopped around for a few & died. The other turkeys just kinda looked at it & walked around waiting for it to get up I guess. That went on for the better part of an hour before they moved on but still wouldnt leave. They walked around me & started rooting around like nothing happened & since I had 2 tags I figured I'd try again. Well it worked twice but the second one was longer dieing & they attacked it.[
] I ended up chasing them off as it didn't seem fair.
Anyhow I got a few pics if you care to look.
This place is on a resivior & I took these on the way out.
This ones another spot I bowhunt. My stand is 50 feet or so into the woods. You cant see them (least I cant) but theres 3 deer looking right at the camera.

RE: Gobblers
Thanks guys.
Yeah, I was in a blind. I'v seen them in several spots this fall while hunting from trees & they always bust me. In the blind tho, even without mesh they dont seem to see you at all. They looked directly at me a bunch of times & didn't see me. Same thing last year but I didn't have the tags.
Anybody got some recipies for wild turkey breasts?
