Have you taken a turkey with your bow
 
Another post got me curious as to how many of us bowhutners have been fortunate to take a turkey with archery equipment. I personally think it is one of the most difficult animals to hunt.

Yes, in the spring. But it has been a few years. Leaving in mid-April every year for 7 months in Canada has put a damper on my turkey hunting.

I marked spring as I could only choose one, but I have taken several in both spring and fall.

One fall tom, had a 8.5 inch beard and 3/4inch spurs. I shot him off the ground at about 4 yards, pretty cool. Went this spring for the first time using strickly archery tackle and was unsuccessful.

Got lucky and had a group of toms walk by my treestand last year. One wasn't as lucky as the rest;)
