Title: Easter Morning Tom
Post by: Traddict on March 31, 2013, 09:17:00 PM
Struggled all day yesterday trying to get a Tom to break away from his hens with no luck.  I found a willing participant this morning. Everything happened fast. The shot was out of a DB Darkhorse blind. Using a Horne's Combo Hunter longbow (51# @ 28", drawing 30"), CE Heritage 250's with a Simmons Tree Shark on the end.

This should be a link to the video.

Totally awesome! Congratulations! I love the video.
We've been trying to do the same here with the South Florida Osceolas.
Got one true trophy opening morning, had a swing and a miss the next client, and the guy who just left really worked his butt off only to be foiled on the last day by a neighbor lady jogging with her dog...of all the luck. Birds have been really silent here. Not much talking at all lately.

I've seen you shoot before Lance(aka crazy man),now I want to know which of your boys REALLY shot that Tom?

Post by: Traddict on April 01, 2013, 01:15:00 PM
Lol!  Blind hog finds an acorn every now and then.  The Toms that are with hens are vocal, but won't come in.  This bird was by himself and never made a sound.
