Very cool!!! My girlfriend just shot her 1st bow last week, has it all set up and shooting baseball size groups yesterday, is taking hunter safety class this weekend, and is going to be a bow hunter(she claims) come turkey season in 30 days. She just thinks archery is cool as heck and is glad I turned her onto the sport.
Thanks for sharing, I will show this video to her 2nite.

Yeah I know I'm a pretty lucky guy. Its fun helpin her and takin her out same for the youth kids I take every year duck and deer huntin.Can't wait to start puttin cameras out again and hang stands with her. She doesn't think she will have time to turkey hunt this year but we will see. We were close last year on a few toms (she had the 20ga) and she could have shot a bunch of jakes and a bearded hen on video but she "wanted to shoot a big tom"
and the closest ones came to about maybe 12ga range. Lookin back she wished she would have killed the hen. Funny thing is I got pics of that hen this fall with some late babies. In august I saw them (flushed infront of my truck goin to put cmaeras out) and they were the size of grouse!!. I'll have to find the pics of the hen I got in sept. WCL

Found it. Here she is 9/6 and when I saw them it was like the first week of august and they were maybe the size of grouse butprobably evensmaller. They put alot of weight on in about 4 weeks.... Hard to see her beard but yousorta can. Easier to see when zoomed in. Wheresheshould have shot herlast spring was 80 yards to the right and down the egde of the field a little ways from the pic. WCL
