The season is getting closer; can't wait to get out and start hunting them with my longbow; anyone have a special "turkey" bow that you use? if so post them up.thank you
:campfire:
I can't wait! This will be my first time hunting them in the spring with a recurve. I hunted them this while deer hunting.
When my new thunderchild gets here in a week or so I'll post my turkey set up!! Cant wait for the woods to start gobblin!!!
I am normally chomping at the bit this time of year waiting for turkey season but this year is a little different. The turkeys have all but abandoned our hunting ground (I am assming because of the drought and lack of available water). I am going on Red Stag hunt in Australia in April and that has my mind pretty consumed right now.
I sure hope the turkeys show back up by the middle of April when I get back home.

Dang skippy, watched 5 birds in full strut, surrounded by some 75 other birds....yeppppp my mind is pretty much consumed.
Looking forward to chasing them come April. I'm going to Ray's in April as well, so a little more focused on that. Still looking forward to turkey hunting some!
Oh yeah. I was reading an article this last weekend about turkey hunting. I was in the nice spring woods with the author, I could hear the turkey's gobble. Then I looked outside at the 6 inches of snow and just shook my head. I can't wait for spring!
I have a turkey/hog hunt set for April in Texas. I hope to add a Rio Grande to my turkey tally. Then, I'll be headed home to Wyoming for (hopefully) another Merriam's.
I'm hoping to have a shot at it this spring, where I grew up there really weren't turkeys to hunt but if I can find a place for it I'd really like to take my longbow out hunting this spring.
Those weird birds start to haunt my dreams this time of year...
Yep, I'm expecting a new Thunder Child any day also. It's going to be my turkey bow. I can't wait!
yes..two saturdays ago the wife and i took our bassett hound "barney" out hiking around looking for sheds and new hunting places. we saw a nice gang of turkeys and ever since ive been thinking maybe my first trad kill will be a BIG GOBBLER! :thumbsup:
I need to ask if you guys use blinds do you shoot through the so called shoot though netting or would it mess with the arrow?
Never killed a turkey with my recurve (or with anything for that matter) but would love to. Came close a few years ago. Still looking for my first.
Good hunting everybody, Jason
Oh yes, second season southern Il.pope county. This will be my first spring turkey hunt, I'm pumped! :thumbsup:
