I'll be after them with a bow after I get one with my BP shotgun.

Where I hunt in RI its usually run and gun, so shotgun is normally the order of the day. In CT, I have a fairly good chance of setting up and getting one in close to the blind with a bow, but it kills me to shell out the $100 for an archery permit that includes deer tags then get the turkey tags on top of that, PLUS the firearms permit if I decide to go that route or hunt in one of the spots I have in CT that is also usually a run and gun type of situation. Since I expect I'll probably shell out the $$ for the fall deer season anyway, if I should happen to find a spare C-Note hanging around I just might give it a shot

tx, I like the idea of the BP shotgun!!!!!!!

I will be gettinga new blind before season, as well. Have to replace the one that "disappeared" last year. I guess it is not safe to leave a blind up even on your own property. I was sure at first that it blew away (even though it had weathered several worse storms), but after seeing all the footprints in the snow lately (on posted land), I am not so sure.

I have taken turkeys the past several years with my shotgun. Think I will try my bow this year.....at least on opening day.
May revert back to the scattergun.
