You read about it, now watch it live! (NC miss!)
 
If you read the 10 reasons from GMMAT, and the story I wrote, you can relate it to the video. Keep in mind, I drew shortely before this video started. I may have been at full draw for close to 2 minutes. Look at the time frame of the video itself. Real time the shot looks good, obviously it wasn't. The arrow as clean and the tail feather I picked up that was cut off tells the story. I do have to laugh tho, Jeff and I sounded like we were trying to stop a whitetail., mah and should have Putt. LMAO.

Without further delay...LOL [8D]

Great work with the camera, Jeff. Love the conversation between you two. Now, all we need is some better work with the bow.[8D]Just kidding Rob, hopefully when we both get home from touring the Caribbean, we will get some video in PA. How did you guys do the rest of the time. The new wife and I are just finishing, well she is finishing packing, and will be departing for the airport shortly. I know you guys had fun no matter what.

Bit of bad luck there Rob.

The shot to me did look like is skimmed across the back but that was in real time would like to see a slow mo of the impact or lack of impact:D

But this is why it's called hunting and not killing;)

Good thing about skimming one high is if you'd gotten enough of him to do him any real damage you'd be talking about the bird you dropped on the spot instead of the one you missed.

Ain't no shame in missing, especially missing a turkey. Catch and release hunting I suppose.

Nice video, and that looked like a nice bird too, fat. Thanks for the effort and sharing fellas!

Quality footage. What camera were you guys using?

Rob's camera is a canon GL2. It was the first time I'd ever tried to film ANYTHING....lol. If I hadn't panned up there before the shot.....I'd give it a "C".;) As it is.....I'm kinda proud of it for the first time out.

I can tell you......the pressure's on the guy behind the lens, too. It was nerve racking!

I've been behind the lens several times, and you are exactly right:D
