Title: Opening Weekend Ky Gobbler
Post by: bluegrassbowhunter on April 21, 2010, 04:35:00 PM
Killed this gobbler Sunday here in Ky...the ridge I killed him on is a 20 minute walk from my back door...by the looks of his spurs(1 3/8") I'd say he's a 3 or 4 year old....shot was 17 yards out of a doublebull blind with a goldtip & Wensel Woodsman..

Nice Mark!  No luck down this way.  Spent the weekend in a blind w/ my boy as he's trying to get his 1st bowkill bird this season.  Don't think I'll get much time alone...Congrats!
