Title: More turkey feather fodder
Post by: GMMAT on March 10, 2010, 06:20:00 PM
This may be a dumb question, but that's never stopped me before.  :)  

You guys who hunt turkeys sans the blind.....do you ever worry about fletching color?  I'm all for wanting to see my arrow in flight.  But I also know these birds eat their carrots (they see REALLY well....and in color).

I'm ready to order some feathers and build my turkey arrows.

Yes!  Either use a cover, or use "camo" colors.  You can also use a fur tracer to see the flight, or splice a bright color on the back end to see better and not be so obvious to the gobblers.

Yeah,their the only animal I've ever hunted that I do get serious about camo with.

If they had a good sence of smell,they'd be impossible.
