Probably the main reason I have never bow-killed a turkey before now is that I generally don't hunt for them. And the main reason I don't hunt for them is because I have had too many folks tell me that to better my chance of success I needed to hunt in a blind - I hate hunting in blinds!

However...I wasn't seeing any deer in my little patch of woods this year but I was seeing a herd of turkeys. So I broke down, put up a pop-up blind, and presto - killed two birds in a week. Everything I've heard is true, turkeys pay no attention to blinds. I had birds all around me and my shot distance on both hens was 10 yards at the most.

The bow I used is a two-piece takedown Thunderstick Mag. I made the arrows out of ash and tipped them with 200 grain Ace Super Express broadheads.
