Title: "A bird in the hand......"
Post by: Bill Carlsen on May 10, 2013, 05:07:00 PM
The turkeys seem to have vanished about a week before hunting season opened last Friday. This guy strolled by my blind at about 2 yards this morning so I thought about the "....two in the bush". Shot him with my DAS/MAX I combo, 55#, Axis 400 shaft and 200 grain Razorcap. He made it all of 15 yards. The arrow went thru the breast bone/heart and I couldn't get it out until I dressed him out.

Joe: I had two major surgeries on my right shoulder. As long as  you listen to your doc and PT's you'll be good to go before you know it.
