Default 1st Gobbler w/ a bow!

I know it seems like eons ago but this is really the first time I thought about posting this. This spring I was fortunate enough to travel to Oregon and hunt Rio's. I was double fortunat enough to harvest a Gobbler with mt Diamond, triumph. It was only at 15 yards and I drilled him. Talk about intense. That is the biggest rush I have ever had hhunting with a bow. I do not know If I could hunt Elk, This PA boy would fall apart at a 15 yard bugling ELK. ANyway I thought I would share. The pic of the bird is in my avatar. I am not sure on how to post pics but there it is. By the way it only had a 5" beard but it was still an awesome experience.

Doesn't matter what size beard. They all have the same eyes. Good job drawing undetected.
