Default Turkey w/ Bow??

Just wonderin how many of yall are gonna turkey hunt w/ a bow this year. I think this will be my first attempt.

Thank God for Striper fishing and Turkey season....

It keeps me from going crazy!! Fishing is getting good up in these parts... nother two weeks or so and the big hogs will be up in the flats!! (just a side note for my MD buddies)

My brother in law and myself are going to try and get a double with our bows this year. Ipicked up a B-Mobile turkey decoy hoping they will focus on that and not so much on our movements. My son sure does like it!

After getting one with my bow last year I am going back to the shotgun. It was just a whole lot cleaner. Plus, those dang things are so tough it is guarenteed to break or bend your arrow, which is a lot more expensive than a shotgun shell. But then, I am a cheap *ss
