Title: Ist Turkey with a Bow
Post by: Lefty on April 17, 2007, 03:21:00 PM

I shot my first turkey with a bow yesterday evening. Here in Iowa we can hunt all day, so I got off work early at 2 pm and headed out. Got set up about 3pm and shot the turkey later that evening. In the picture is my daughter Brier and myself with the bird. The shot was 7 yards from a DB matrix blind and shot him with my Adcock ACS CX 49#@28" and woodsman head. He weighed in at 22 pounds and had 1 1/8" spurs. It was a real thrill and I was very excited!

Man just when I was going hunting with my new takedown I find out you have to have an Adcock bow to kill turkeys! Guess I'll wait till I hit the lottery and can get on the waiting list! Seriously, that is too cool. Congrats.
