Wondering you guys thought on a gamplan I have for a set up tomorrow with my buddy who wants to try and use his bow.
I am thinking of roosting the toms tonight. I know the general area that they will roost in. I am anticipating them flying down and working a flat right to me. My buddy wants to use his bow so I am thinking of setting him up perpendicular to where the gobblers will come in to my calling. Plan on setting up facing the bench they should come in on. I plan on setting him up about 40 yards in front my me and about 20 yards in from my anticpated path the birds will take. I will place a decoy about 15 yards in front of me.
I think the bird might come in and focus on the decoy and walk right past him, offering him a perfect broad side shot.
DO you think this could work or would I be better off just setup up about 15 yards or so behind him. Not sure a quartering away shot on a turkey would go so well but if the bird would walk past him, to come into my calling he could get drawn a lot easier if the bird is past him.
ANy thoughts? Sounds good on paper.
