Yep it is almost turkey season what is your set up? My set up is Yellowstone Halfbreed 62" 46@27.5 60/65 Surewood shafts with a Grizzly Broadhead two decoys a popup blind and Primos pot calls.

I use an Ameristep 1/2 blind so I don't have contend with a roof. Then I use one of my dad's box calls and a diaphram call. I use the same archery tackle as I would for deer.

Rancho safari long coat modified exactly like David Waldrop suggests. Of course Waldrop pac seat and this year 58" Toelke Chinook Wensel 3 blades and i like Chads string tracker

Ameristep pop up.  Primaltech 58" longbow 51@28 drawing 27".  Eason axis .500's with a 75gr insert and 175gr point. 5 inch feathers.  Various mouth calls and pot calls.

Bodnik Slick Stick #52@ my 30"' draw. GT Hunter XT 340 full length 100gr brass insert 165gr Zwickey No Mercy Broadhead. Various box calls, slates, and push pulls. Got 3 hens one jake and a full strut tom I'll use in varying combinations.

Good luck!!

This years set-up will be a Black Widow PCHX 60"(due in within the next 2 weeks) Snuffer 160 glue-on on an aluminum adapter. Arrows.... have to see what tunes but leaning towards Victory Xtorsion 300's. Xenek blind and Avian X Jake and hen decoy.

For the few times I anticipate getting out, I will be using a 58" PCHX, 45lbs, 30" 6mm FMJs, 75 grain brass inserts with 175 grain 3 blade VPAs, out of a Primos Shack Attack blind, Avian X hen and Jake decoys. Seth, maybe get together for a hunt or two?

Absolutely! I'm going to get some cameras out as soon as the snow leaves.

Hidden Hunter blind, a couple of Avain decoys, several box calls, and several slates.  Taking my son and mom.

A&H longbow 40# with GT shafts\Grizzly heads.

Or

Border Covert Hunter 40 ish #

And/or

a WF-19 ILF with TT 40# long limbs, GT with either grizzly heads, Simmons or VPA.

Built a new 58" longbow in case I use the blind. Double Bull Matrix (which I hate sitting in any blind) .

Bow is 48# , will use some Beman 400s with a big Magnus 2 blade on the front.

Also have an ASAT leafy I'm gonna try on them before the blind comes out.

I used to get sick of packing turkeys out, but cured that prob by going trad bow instead of shotgun and no blind!!  LOL

Double Bull Blind, 58" Camo Schafer Silvertip, Easton Axis Arrows, tipped with 160 gr. Thunderheads. Avian X Dekes.

Howard Hill Half Breed, 56#, Wapiti cedars, Simmons Tree Sharks and a ghille suit/homemade ground blind.....very excited!

Black Widow PLX, 62" 47#@28", GT 600 Traditional XT arrows, 150 Grn Grizzly heads. Great Northern gadget adapter with a string tracker. Ameristep Big House popup blind.

Gonna be the deer setup. 50 lb Martin Hatfield, 4 fletch cedar arrow (wild turkey feathers, good MOGO 😀) with a W W broadhead. Will try a string tracker this year with a Big Mike blind. 40 year old box call and some cheaper dekes to round out the illusion.

Bear wood or mag A riser and 45#, 56-inch limbs out of a pop up blind.  Easton axis .500 shafts tipped with Woodsmans or the large Snuffers, about 510-520 grains total weight

I'm handling 20# fine and I ordered 30# limbs which should be here tomorrow. My original 40# limbs are a no go unfortunately. If I can handle 30# do you think I should try it on them or am I asking for trouble?

I'm working on a new bow now, just for turkey season. Can't wait! I missed season last year due to some family medical issues, first season I missed in almost 20 years. Just made a new call, next is the bow, and then some new bamboo arrows. As far as the blind goes, I'll be sitting in the dirt somewhere, just up against a tree.

I'll be shooting my trusty Omega Native, #42@28 with Grizzlies up front. Ill be sitting over DSD decoys in a Big Mike blind.

How do you like that shack attack blind.  Im looking into getting a blind that will work for bows up to 62" without having to lean to much to not hit the roof.  DO the windows go low so you can shoot something at like 5 yards?
