What's Your Spring Turkey Setup?

[2Blade]

Was wondering what everyone's bow arrow and broadhead setup were going to be for the 2010 spring turkey season? I will be totting my Bear Kodiak Magnum 55lb @28 Easton 2016 Gamegetters and 125gr Magnus head. Please post specs and previous kills with your setup, im getting cabin fever! I'm ready to climb in to my blind and make some calls.

mine will be a golden hawk 3 pc take down 48 at 28. Grizzley stick sitka's and WW elite 200 grain heads.  And the secret weapon a john Pususta custom box call

Morrison Shawnee with Arapaho limbs, 60", 60# @ 29", Goldtips with 160 Snuffer on the end.  

This particular bow is pretty basic... Boo limbs and dymondwood riser...  I'm thinking really hard about sending it to Bob and getting it dipped in Predator Green Deception and have 1/2 pinecones added to the grip.  I don't use the bow exept for Turkeys in the spring or if it is pretty foul weather.  Shoots right with my other Shawnees but isn't as pretty so I don't feel so bad exposing it to  these conditions.  And it doesn't have snake skins on the back which will foul up a turkey hunt in a heartbeat.  Them birds really don't like snakes and they pick them out right quick, even if you are not moving!

Bear A mag with #1 limbs 47#, 1916 Eastons with 100gr magnus 2 blade. Will be using this set up out of a pop up blind.

Will depend on my mood the day I get up to go 8^).   Typical deer hunting equipment though.

I was successful last spring using my old 55# Browning Cobra and Jack Kempf Longbow. Cedar shafts and 160 Gr Snuffers.... This year no hen decoy...bad luck...

[stik&string]

I agree with George, same set up I use for whitetails although the bow may change from hunt to hunt.

[2Blade]

Sounds like some good setups guys. Joe nice photos!! I had the same thing happen to me last year except the longbeard was in bow range I just didnt have the right window open!!

[David McLendon]

Black Widow PAX Bocote with Mammoth Tusk overlays 60" 54#@28, footed hexshaft, 160 gr Snuffer.

[Kenneth]

This will be my first year hunting turkeys with archery equipment.  My set up is a 58" Whisperstik Voodoo 45#@28" that I'm gonna get dipped in Predator green deception, and I'll either be using 2016's or cedars.  I haven't decided on a head yet but I'm thinking something with a big cut 1 1/2" or so.  Any of you guys use those heads with the 4 big blades called the guillotine?  I would rather use a fixed blade and shoot for the vitals but if I were skilled enough to make head shots they look like they'd be pretty good.

I'll be using my 50lb wolf long bow, shooting 2117s and 150 grain woodsmens for a total of 612grains of turn a turkey in side out madness!!!!  hahah I hope so anyway.

[bow loving man]

[2Blade]

James, did you have difficulty recovering the bird? Is that why your going with the String Tracker? BTW very nice bird!

[WESTBROOK]

Unless I get something else worked up, I'll be shooting my Super Shrew 54# @ 30", CX150 W/170g Woodsman.

A Rick Ray custom longbow 58" 55# at 27". Works nice in ground blinds.Arrows POC with No Mercy broadheads.

[lpcjon2]

My set up is simple a shopping cart and a super market...LOL    
I see turkeys all year(especially when deer hunting) and when I buy all those permits(it's ridiculous in NJ) they all seem to vanish.

[Biggie Hoffman]

Mossburg 3.5" magnum
