Title: Turkey after 21 years ...pictures added.
Post by: longbowray on August 28, 2009, 09:29:00 PM

I shot my first turkey in 21 years hear Arizona. I was able to get to 40 yards when the jakes started fighting and moving my way.
They got to within 21 yards and I released the Wensel Woodsman tipped 2219. The razor sharp broadhead didn't even slow down as it passed through the bird.

I used my 68 lb, 60" Mahaska recurve.

Good shooting and a super trophy my friend. 21 years shows how persistant a bowhunter needs to be when hunting these wiley characters.
