I'll be shooting my Stalker Tracker...58", 60#, 29" Axis shaft with 150 grain Phoenix heads with 50 grain adapter (200 grains up front). Most of my hunting will be from my Double Bull blind and my 5 year old grandson asked me to teach him to turkey hunt so I won't always be alone. I hope he is with me when it comes together. If it does there will be a story and pics.

1998 64" PMA Widow 70# at 30" with a full length 2219 Legacy arrow with a 165 Simmons Treeshark.

I know it's seems like a lot of bow for Turkeys but it what I've been shooting lately and it shoots really good for Me. Also it hits like a freight train.

Just wanted to say 2 toms gobbling their back sides off this morning behind the house....11am. NY late season opener sucks. May 1st....

Anyway...Sitka Spruce Arrows, 160 gr Snuffers will rest in my Cat 3.5 quiver. Will alternate between my new Fedora(52#) and my old Browning Cobra(55#). "Lefty" and "Righty"....should be fun. Let's get pumped....

1962 Bear Grizzly 62"45#@28"  MJ Log glass arrows, Muzzy Phantom 4 blade 125gr. Or  Muzzy 3 blade 125gr. Finished arrow # 590gr.  Not a blazing fast set up but very quiet and forgiving, just a fun bow to shoot for me!  I have put some of the old Bear camo limb covers over the white glass limbs for turkey season.
Good luck everyone and be safe with the shotguners in the woods too!

Hey therEKen time will be limited, will give it a try with the Big River with cedar shaft and 100 grain 2 blade broadheads.
Charlie tell you about what happened to most of the bucks on the farm?
Title: Re: lets here your turkey set up please!!
Post by: Cyclic-Rivers on April 03, 2012, 09:30:00 PM
Dad those Rib Teks Rafael sent you are 125 Grain.  Great Broad heads unfortunately they are only in Australia now. Still available but you pay for shipping.

They should fly great with your cedar shafts and Big river bow.

Earl,  Good to see you back.  Guess you will add to your wall of longbeards.

Joe, stop teasing us, season doesn't start for another Month, you know just before the fall season starts.   :nono:  

I have a month before I completely decide.

Was thinking 46lb Griffin Longbow,  Douglas Fir Shafts with 130 Stos up front.

And No, I didn't tell Ken about the Bucks, I hate promoting A holes that feel the need to poach and steal wildlife!
