Title: Snow Bird!! Bow Bird!! WI Opener
Post by: MK M GOBL on April 18, 2018, 06:50:46 PM
Had a little break in the "winter" weather for the Wisconsin Opener, I took my good friend out for a bow hunt and she was able to arrow a great gobbler! Stuck him at 12 yards over the DSD's, bird weighed in at 25lbs 2oz, 9 13/16" Beard and 1 1/4" Spurs.

a couple hours later for pic #2

Congrats!   My buddy put one to bed last night and got him this morning.   Northern Wisconsin.   He said it was the first time he needed snowshoes. It ain't easy in the deep snow.  Congrats again!

Congrats to you both. That's a heavy bird. Thank you for what you do for the kids too. I would have to say that you are one of the most unselfish turkey hunters that I know. Need more like ya. Congrats again to you both....

Congratulations on a fine bird. They're still doing what they do even in the snow.
