Congrats on a beautiful tom. The fact you took him durring your second season makes it even better. Turkey have to be the hardest animals to draw on. Kudos on a bow kill!

Thanks, guys! It was a blast! The only downside was that the end happened so fast. There was less than 10 seconds between the time that I first saw him to the time the arrow hit him. Would have been cool to watch him come in. But just hearing it was incredible, so I can't complain.

What's great is I have two tags left for a county out west. Can't wait to take a trip out there in a couple of weeks.

Here's a few more pics. My apologies for the pic in the back of the truck, but it shows his beard and spurs a little better.

Close up on the beard and head. Just watching the head turn colors was cool! How can anyone not love turkey hunting?
