Title: First traditional harvest - Turkey
Post by: TRAD JOE on April 20, 2009, 02:30:00 PM

Hi all, went out this weekend to hunt Turkey with couple of trad shooting friends. We went to a ranch that is about a 6 hour drive from where I live, but the trip was totally worth it. I managed to get my first traditional harvest, a good old gobbler!

Shot with a 58" 45#@27" Thunderhorn Heartstopper, Easton Legacy 2018 arrow with a two blade Magnus from a ground blind.

I am so grateful that I had a chance to go on this hunt and have a good result.

That is a coati (also called "coatimundi"), I believe.  Related to the raccoon.

That is correct Tracks, they are pretty common from the eastern coast of Mexico all the way to the south.
