Title: Turkey Camp/Scenery Pics...
Post by: wooddamon1 on May 14, 2012, 10:19:00 PM
Here's some pics of my turkey camps and some scenery so far this year...

No turkeys were harmed (except by a scatter-gunning buddy, which doesn't count anyway    :saywhat: )

Found a lot of sign for future hunts...this small rub was in a heck of a pinch point down in a ravine full of tracks and poop.

The best part of camp...

Beautiful country there.  Hopefully you can put all those knives to good use.

Here's a shotgun/compound hunting buddy that I think may be a convert soon...

(http://i1121.photobucket.com/albums/l502/MrDwood/DSCN2757.jpg)

He was thumpin' the "2-headed turkey target" 8 out of 10 times from 25 yards...

Trying to catch the arrow in flight...

He got his form down pretty decent after only a few shots (first time shooting a recurve) and says he's getting one to shoot this summer...

Yeah, seems like every time I go to organize my pack, more knives have found their way in there.    :dunno:

It's an early 70s Kodiak Hunter. Smooth as can be and at 45#, I can shoot for hours.  :archer2:

You have a very beautiful place to hunt, looks like your enjoying your time there.  I shared camp with a couple of guys that wanted to shoot my recurve also.  We spent one afternoon and evening around the campfire flinging arrows, great times for sure.  Good luck with the remainder of your hunt!

Thanks guys, JJB, it seems everyone who visits camp likes to try flingin' a few out of my bows. I've given a couple recurves to friends and they've stuck with 'em so far...
