Well he may not be as nice a looking bird as some I have seen on this site...but he's my first! A Surewood Shaft arrow shot out of my Blacktail bow did the job.  

Thanks to Oregon Okie for sharing his spot. We had fun. Have to do it again Russ!

Congrats man that is awesome!!

Any turkey killed with a bow is a nice looking turkey,regardless of size....you should be proud.

Snag,

Don't downplay your bird!  That is a great accomplishment.  Tell us about it!

Very cool !

I've yet to shoot one myself and any legal bird that offer's himself is fair game in my book...well done

Congrats, Great job. You are one of a select few.

Yeah man, way to go!

Awesome...nice bird.  

Josh

Very nice. Congratulations!

I still have to do it the first time... I've been seeing how often I can hear the alarm putt without ever killing a turkey. Still have a few more chances. Thanks for showing me how it's done.

Not much of a story...Russ and I arrived at his friends property. We set up and I did some box calling. Got several gobbles from the direction of the back of his property. Then they appeared. They were hesitant to come in...until the guy fired up his tractor. Then they started running in! They came toward our decoy and at 15yds. I lead this bird about a necks worth....BAM! (as Dennis would say) I had to put another arrow in him to finish the job...they are tough birds! Thanks again Russ! The next turkey hunt is on me. I have another spot we need to check out.

He looks nice to me  

Snag,

Congratulations!  The turkey is probably the toughest kill with a stickbow we can take on.  Great job!!

Bill

Congratulations!!!  Turkey hunting with a stickbow is Great!!

Congrats on the bird. I guess you won't be needing any more primaries  :D

Congrats, a bird in hand beats two in the bush!

Looks like a fine bird to me, be proud.

BlacktailBowhunter, now I wouldn't say that! An arrowmaker can always use primaries!    haha!

   

He's a lot nicer than the one I didn't connect w/ this past Oklahoma spring season!  Nice bird.  Good lookin' bow too.
