Shot this beautiful tom yesterday morning. 56" sinew backed Osage w/ water mocassin skins, 50@28. Cedar arrows with MA-3 head. 1"spurs, 8"beard and had to weight around 25lbs. Big for a Merriam.

Congrats!
An arrow can only be shot by pulling it backward.So when life is dragging you back with difficulties, it means that it's going to launch you into something great.

Thanks guy's! Yes that is snow, just a skiff, but we got 8" over night about 1000' higher up.

That's a major score!  Great bird.  I'm jealous.

Nice job, Jason, on a great looking bird.  Very cool to take it with a selfbow, quite an accomplishment.
