well, someone has to post first!

I did check out Spur Collector's area bamagtrdude  & it looks great. I'm no authority though, so don't go by me!
I am going to bag my first Turkey this spring if it is the last thing I do!

It doesn't look like my messages are going through to you and I'm not sure why. It's probably on my end with my PM's for some reason. I just need to see a post by him or receive a PM from him to confirm.

He posted on your thread in the General Forum last week; see attached pic.

Is anyone else chasing gobblers with a bow this spring?

I started Turkey hunting in 2013, and I've only hunted them with a bow so far. I've called in numberous hens to inside 5 feet of my blind, but while hunting on my own in the blind, every Gobbler has hung up just out of bow range. Enough to drive me batty! Did get one Gobbler last year to inside bow range for me, but I was hunting with my daughter that day & her kill range for 25 yards & while I should have dusted that Gobbler when he got inside my range, I just couldn't shoot it out from under her. THE things dads do for their children! IN the end, we both left empty handed that day. The good thing was, I called the Gobbler into my bow range, which was the first Gobbler in the 2 15 day Michigan seasons I got inside the 40 yard mark.

I'm going to bring the shotgun to the field this year too. If I get lucky on opening morning and a Gobbler comes into my set, then I'll dust him with the bow. However, I'm planning on being mobile this year and going off after them with my shotgun IF they don't cooperate.

My original goal was to take my first Gobble with my bow, but I'm "adjusting" that goal! Time will tell AS to how that first Gobbler falls!

It doesn't look like there's a cap on how many we can have on our team. But only the 9 biggest turkeys will count toward the contest.

Welcome ScottS!

Back to the bowhunting....

I shoot my bow year round and am comfortable on a vital area the size of a turkey's at 60 yards. I would never take that shot at a whitetail because they tend to move by the time the arrow makes it. Is it the same with turkeys? Should I limit shot distance to their ability to move or will they stay pretty still when they hear string whip?
